Water has two main bonds: hydrogen bonds between other water molecules, and a covalent bond between hydrogen and oxygen.

∙ 14y agoThere is only one type of INTRAmolecular bond involved in water. That is the covalent bonds between the oxygen atom and the two hydrogen atoms.

What characteristic is responsible for many of waters properties?
Hydrogen Bonds
Waters high specific heat is mainly a consequence of the?
absorbtion and release of heat when hydrogen bonds break and form
What force holds compounds together?
bonds hold compounds together. Depending on the type of compound, different bonds are used. For example NaCl (sodium chloride) which is commonly referred to as table salt is held together by an ionic bond.
What type of bonds holds the nitrogenous bases together in the DNA molecule?
your teacher will probably accept hydrogen bonds, however it is more of an attraction not a physical bond
Covalent bonds are generally less stable than ionic bonds?
trueYes, they are. Covalent bonds are the strongest type of intramolecular bond, and hydrogen bonds are the strongest type of intermolecular bond. However, intramolecular bonds (within molecules or compounds) are ALWAYS stronger that intermolecular bonds (between molecules), so covalent bonds are much stronger that hydrogen bonds.
What is the strongest of the intermolecular bonds?
Hydrogen bonds can be considered as the strongest intermolecular attraction forces.
When water evaporates are intermolecular or intramolecular bonds broken?
intermolecular
Most of waters unique properties result from the fact that water molecules?
They are electrically attract each other and form hydrogen bonds. One of the strongest intermolecular forces.
Waters ability to dissolve ionic substances?
Water can dissolve ionic substances because in both substances the bond are very polar. When a solute is added to water, some of water's hydrogen bonds break as the water forms intermolecular bonds with the solute. Because ionic substances are polar, the new intermolecular bonds formed when they dissolve in water are quite strong, and can compensate for the energy lost when breaking the water's hydrogen bonds.
What is a result of intermolecular forces out of covalent bonds hydrogen bonds electronegativity double bonds?
hydrogen bonds
What interaction is not a type of intermolecular force?
Intramolecular forces are not intermolecular forces !
What is a result of intermolecular force?
Hydrogen bonds
What makes matter solid?
Its intermolecular bonds.
What is the difference between intermolecular forces and intramolecular bonds?
Intermolecular forces are based on electrostatic attraction and/or polarisation phenomena. Intramolecular bonds involve covalent bonds, polar or non-polar.
How do intermolecular forces compare to covalent and ionic bonds in terms of strength?
Ionic bonds create stronger intermolecular attraction than covalent bonds do; that is why rocks are harder than plastic.
What is a sentence for intermolecular force?
Intermolecular forces shown by the dotted lines not by strong covalent bonds.
What type of intermolecular bond is the strongest?
Hydrogen bonds can be considered as the strongest intermolecular attraction forces.
