Molecular Interactions | MCQs

Explanation

The bond formed between water molecules (H2O) is a hydrogen bond.

The bond within the water molecule itself is a covalent bond

Explanation

• Intermolecular forces are weaker than ionic or covalent bonds.
• Intermolecular forces are the attractive forces between molecules.
• While ionic and covalent bonds are the forces that hold atoms together within a molecule.

Explanation

• A hydrogen bond is a type of intermolecular force that arises between a highly electronegative atom (such as oxygen, nitrogen, or fluorine).
• A hydrogen atom that is bonded to a highly electronegative atom.
• This interaction is typically weak compared to covalent bonds.
• But it is strong enough to influence the physical and chemical properties of molecules.
