Can hydrogen bonds be easily be broken?
yes they can be easily broken
Are hydrogen bonds easily broken?
Heat. Intermolecular Hydrogen bonds (between two water molecules) are broken as water is heated to boil.The intramolecular hydrogen bonds (between H and O) stay intact
What is a very weak type of bond?
It's a bond that is relatively easily broken, compared to other bonds.
Why is it important for hydrogen bonds to be weak bonds instead of strong bonds?
"Individual hydrogen bonds are weak and easily broken; however, they occur in very large numbers in water and in organic polymers, creating a major force in combination. Hydrogen bonds are also responsible for zipping together the DNA double helix." -lumenlearning
Each water molecule is joined to?
Each water molecule forms multiple hydrogen bonds with neighboring water molecules. These bonds are transient and easily and quickly shift among molecules.
What chemical groups are hydrogen acceptors for hydrogen bonds?
A hydrogen acceptors for hydrogen bonds is nitrogen.
What holdes the two strands of a DNA molecule to each other?
Hydrogen bonds
How are bonds between A-T and G-C different?
It is the hydrogen wich bonds between AT and GC the difference is in the number AT have 2 hydrogen bonds GC have 3 hydrogen bonds
Why weak bonds are important to living organisms?
Weak bonding forces, such as hydrogen bonding are essential to living organism because these bonds can be broken and re-made fairly easily. The two strands of DNA are held together in a double helix by hydrogen bonds.
What is a result of intermolecular forces out of covalent bonds hydrogen bonds electronegativity double bonds?
hydrogen bonds
How much hydrogen bonds are in hf?
There are no hydrogen bonds in HF.
What is the weakest bond type?
It is not covalent, because it is the strongest type. The Correct answer is van der Waals.
