Explain the similarity between a hydrogen bond and a covalent bond. Explain a similarity between a hydrogen bond and an electrostatic interaction. Explain a difference between an electrostatic interaction and a hydrogen bond.

Expert Solution

•Actually there is no significant similarities between covalent and hydrogen bonds but even some of similarity between them is :

Both covalent and hydrogen bonds are forms of intermolecular forces.
Covalent and hydrogen bonds are types of chemical bonds.
Both covalent and hydrogen bonds occur between two atoms.
Both type of bonds (covalent & hydrogen) act as a glue between two atoms.

•Similarity between a hydrogen bond and an electrostatic interaction:

Electrostatic interaction involve the attractive interaction between negatively charged anion and positively charged cation. Similarly hydrogen bond involve the attractive interaction between negatively charged lone pair of electron on highly Electronegative atom and slightly positively charged hydrogen atom bonded to highly electronegative atom.

• difference between an electrostatic interaction and a hydrogen bond:

Electrostatic interaction in ionic bond involve transfer of electron from one atom to another atom to form anion and cation . Whereas in hydrogen bond transfer of electron do not occur as well as cation and anion do not form.

Compare and contrast hydrogen, ionic, and covalent bonds. Include a definition of each bond, explain between which kinds of atoms each bond forms, and compare the strength of the different bonds. Give examples where applicable, highlighting the significance of these different bonds for life.

Define Ionic bond, polar covalent bond, non-polar covalent bond, hydrogen bond.

Define the following terms and give an example of each: Ionic bond, polar covalent bond, non-polar covalent bond, hydrogen bond.

If hydrogen bond is weaker than covalent bond, it's necessary 5 kcal/mol to break a hydrogen bond and 100 kcal/mol to beak a covalent bond.

Hydrogen bonds and boiling point.If hydrogen bond is weaker than covalent bond, it's necessary 5 kcal/mol to break a hydrogen bond and 100 kcal/mol to beak a covalent bond. Why, then, the compounds with hydrogen bonds have high boiling points?

the difference between a nonpolar covalent bond, a polar covalent bond, and an ionic bond. Choose the BEST answer: A.Ionic bonds can be considered as 100% polarized toward the metal. B.Polar covalent bonds display partial polarization toward the nonmetal, while ionic bonds exhibit full polarization. C.Nonpolar covalent bonds involve full/equal sharing of electrons, while polar covalent and ionic do not. D.These three types of bonds are part of a continuum that is affected the average electronegativity of the bonded atoms.

In your own words and in detail, contrast a hydrogen bond, ionic bond, and covalent bond.
