What does molecule mean in a scientific term?
A molecule is a group of two or more atoms bound together by covalent bonds (sharing electrons) in a particle that is electrically neutral.
What is the type of chemical bond within a water molecule?
The two hydrogen molecules and the oxygen molecule in water are joined by covalent bonding where they share the electron.
How many covalent bonds can Hydrogen form?
1
How do you know if an element is a ionic or covelant bond?
If you mean what bond does an element form the general answer is metals form ionic bonds noble gases have great difficulty forming bonds, when they do they are covalent rest of non metals form either ionic bonds with metals or covalent bonds with the rest metalloids form mainly covalent
What does it mean when covalent bonds are polar?
It means that the atoms involved in the bond do not share the electrons equally.

What types of bonds do water form?
Water molecules form covalent bonds, because they are non-metal compounds. If you mean the bonds within the water molecules themselves, they are Hydrogen bonds.
In a beaker of water the main water-water bonds are what?
They're called hydrogen bonds. It's a bond between the positive hydrogen and the negative oxygen in the water molecule. While the bond isn't as strong as the other three bonds (metallic, ionic, covalent), its strength gives water its surface tension and cohesion properties, as well as causing ice to float.

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
What do you mean by polarity in the covalent bonds?
polarity means how much quantity soluble in water
What does it mean when covalent bonds are polar?
It means that the atoms involved in the bond do not share the electrons equally.
What are bonds in chemistry?
Bonding means the particles are stuck together
What does mean when you say bonding between elements?
In a molecule, atoms are joined together by bonds. When we say bonding, we are referring to these bonds.
Can a molecule be polar with no polar covalent bonds?
No, not necessarily. It all depends on the symmetry of the molecule. Take a look at Carbon dioxide. It has a linear shape like this : O=C=O Although the bonds are obviously polar, the molecule is symmetrical. This makes the polarities of the bonds "cancel" each other, so to speak. So overall, this molecule is non-polar. If you take a look at Hydrogen chloride, on the other hand, it has a shape like this: H-Cl The molecule is assymmetrical, so this is a polar molecule.
