How do hydrogen bonds compare with other intermolecular forces?
Hydrogen bonds are stronger than dipole-dipole and Van der Waals forces.
What is the weakest bond type?
It is not covalent, because it is the strongest type. The Correct answer is van der Waals.
Is the hydrogen bond considered a relatively weak or strong bond between molecules?
A hydrogen bond is classified as a weak bond. It is stronger than van der Waals forces but significantly weaker than ionic bonds and covalent bonds. Hydrogen bonds can be found on deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) where they bind the double helix structure of bases together.
Is a hydrogen bond stronger than a polar covalent bond?
A hydrogen bond is weaker than a covalent bond.
Why are hydrogen bonds between HF molecules stronger than those between HBr and HI and HCl molecules?
I think it's because HF forms hydrogen bonds, that are stronger than other Van der Waals's forces - other molecules form weaker molecular bonds.

How do hydrogen bounds compare with other intermolecular forces?
Hydrogen bonds are much stronger than other intermolecular forces.

Do cytosine and guanine have stronger hydrogen bonds than adenine and thymine?
It's not that the individual hydrogen bonds are stronger but rather there are more of them. Between A and T there are two hydrogen bonds, between G and C there are three hydrogen bonds. The additional hydrogen bond between G and C does mean that the bonding between G and C is much stronger then that between A and T and requiring of significantly more energy to break.
Why is the boiling point of water is higher than hydrogen fluoride?
The two hydrogen-oxygen bonds in a water molecule allow it to form more hydrogen bonds with adjacent molecules than hydrogen fluoride can with its one hydrogen-fluorine bond. As a result, water has a stronger attraction between molecules.
What are characteristics of double bonds?
Double bonds are shorter than single bonds, and also stronger than single bonds (though less than twice as strong).
Why are covalent bonds stronger than molecular bonds?
Ionic bonds are stronger.
Which bond is stronger an ionic bond or a hydrogen bond?
Ionic bonds are far stronger than hydrogen bonds. Ice is held together by hydrogen bonds, and table salt, which is sodium chloride (NaCl), is held together by ionic bonds. You can hammer on ice and break the hydrogen bonds holding it together with relative ease. But you can hammer all day on salt, turn it to a white powder, and not break the sodium-chlorine bonds (those ionic bonds) in any molecules of salt by doing so.
Which has the strongest nitrogen bond H2NNH2 or HNNH?
HNNH, it has a double bond while H2NNH2 has a single, and doubles are stronger than single bonds, just as triple is stronger than double.
