well its a case by case matter.
- Generally ionic bonds are the strongest
- followed by covalent bonds (diamonds are made of covalent networks) so it can be said that they are strong
- fllowed by hydrogen bonds
- then diople-dipole- interactions
- and finally the weakest force London dispersion forces.

∙ 16y agoWhether it is a single, double or triple covalent bond. ie. how many electrons are shared.

∙ 12y agoi have no idea sorry maybe you should check a chemistry book
Wiki User
∙ 13y agoHow many electrons are being shared between the atoms
Electronegativity of the atoms forming the bond
Size of the atoms forming the bond

∙ 12y agoIt depends on exactly what is meant by strength in this context, but the question may be referring to the disassociation constant for an ionic compound dissolved in water.

Weak bonds and strong bonds?
stong bonds are ionic bonds and covalent bonds and weak bonds are van der waals bonds and hydrogen bonds.
What type of chemical bond holds together the backbone of a strand of DNA?
Covalent bonds between a sugar molecule (deoxyribose) and a phosphate group make up the backbone of DNA. These are very strong covalent bonds and are broken only with great expenditure of energy--x-rays, for example.
What bonds does carbon atoms tend to form?
Carbon will almost always form bonds with other carbon atoms, and that is part of what makes it such a useful element.
Where is the DNA found?
The strong bonds between the DNA chains are the hydrogen bonds (H-bonds). The H-bonds exist between the base pairs. 2 H-bonds exist between Adenine and Thymine and only 3 H-bonds exist between Guanine and Cytosine. This means that A-T bonds are stronger than C-G, this difference arises purely because of slight chemical differences in the bases.Within the chains the strong bonds are covalent. These covalent bonds are found between the sugar group of one nucleotide and the phosphate group of another.
What type of bonds does carbon form?
Carbon will normally form four covalent bonds.These are normally one of several possible hybridizationsof the s and p orbitals.
Is Covalent bond is a strong bond or weak bond?
Covalent bond is a strong chemical bond. Hydrogen bonds are weak bonds.
What are two properties of covalent bonds?
- covalent bonds involve electrons sharing- covalent bond is not so strong as ionic bond
Why is the covalent bonds weak?
Covalent bonds are strong bonds, though they are generally weaker than ionic bonds.
Are hydrogen bonds as strong as ionic and covalent bonds?
No they are significantly weaker.
What is the difference in strength between atoms with ionic bonds and atoms with covalent bonds?
ionic bonds have strong bonds and molecular bonds have very strong bonds.
Do metallic bonds have weak forces?
Metallic bonds are not so strong as covalent and ionic bonds.
In a polymer very long chains of molecules are held together by very strong molecular bonds what are these forces called?
The bonds are called covalent molecular bonds.
Weak bonds and strong bonds?
stong bonds are ionic bonds and covalent bonds and weak bonds are van der waals bonds and hydrogen bonds.
Why covalent compound is insoluble in water?
The bonds between the atoms are too strong
Is covalent bond the strongest bond?
yes and no. Simple discrete molecules have simple covalent bond and its melting point is very low because little energy is needed to overcome its simple covalent bonds. But it can be very strong when there are plenty of bonds like in diamond- which has a giant covalent lattice. (there are alot of these covalent bonds holding it together) so alot of energy is needed to break the bonds.
Which compound has a high melting point covalent and non metals?
A possible compound would be silicon dioxide with giant covalent structure and strong covalent bonds.
Why the melting and boiling point of covalent compound are low?
Compared to ionic compounds, covalent compounds have relatively low melting and boiling points because covalent bonds are not as strong as ionic bonds, and it is the bonds which hold materials together in the solid, or more solid phases.
