Pregunta 3
Pregunta
The ability of an atom to attract electrons in a bond with another atom is termed its
Respuesta
hydrophobicity
electronegativity
solubility
valence
both a and b
Pregunta 4
Pregunta
Hydrogen bonds differ from covalent bonds in that
Respuesta
covalent bonds can form between any type of atom, and hydrogen bonds form only between H and O.
covalent bonds involve sharing of electrons, and hydrogen bonds involve the complete transfer of electrons
covalent bonds result from equal sharing of electrons, but hydrogen bonds involve unequal sharing of electrons.
covalent bonds involve sharing of electrons between atoms, but hydrogen bonds are the result of weak attractions between a hydrogen atom of a polar molecule and an electronegative atom of another polar molecule.
covalent bonds are weak bonds that break easily, but hydrogen ions are strong links between atoms that are not easily broken.
