What is not a true bond but rather an attraction between a partially positive hydrogen atom and a partially negative oxygen or nitrogen atom?

It's called a hydrogen bond.
(There's also a vaguely similar concept called a "dipolar" or "dative" bond, but the fact that you've limited it specifically to hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen means that "hydrogen bond" is almost certainly the term you're looking for.)

An bond is formed through a weak electrical attraction between a hydrogen atom bound to an electronegativeatom such as oxygen and nitrogen and another electronegative atom?
As long as the hydrogen is attached to Florine, oxygen, or nitrogen the bonding will be a hydrogen bond.
What bond makes Oxygen nitrogen and fluorine bond with hydrogen?
A "hydrogen bond" - a intermolecular force caused by large difference in electronegativity. [Hydrogen has a very low electronegativity whilst Fluorine, Oxygen and Nitrogen all have a very high electronegativity so an electrostatic attraction exists]
Can CH4 for hydrogen bond?
No, in CH3F all the hydrogen atoms are bonded to carbon, which is not very electronegative. In order to form hydrogen bonds a molecule must have hydrogen bonded directly to ahifhly electronegative element such as nitrogen, oxygen, or fluorine.
What is Nitrogen and hydrogen compound?
Hydrogen and nitrogen are both elements. That means that neither of them are made up of other elements. A hydrogen molecule is just two atoms of hydrogen. Nitrogen is just atoms of nitrogen.
What is the chemical formula for hydrogen and nitrogen?
NH3 (ammonia)
When hydrogen is attached to the more highly electronegative oxygen atom in a water molecule?
When hydrogen is attached to a more electronegative element, the electronegative atom becomes partially negative and the hydrogen atom becomes partially positive
WHYNh3 is stong bond?
NH3 is a strong bond because it is capable of hydrogen bonding. when it comes to intermolecular forces (dispersion, dipole-dipole, hydrogen bonding, and ion-dipole) hydrogen bonding is one of the strongest. Molecules containing Hydrogen atoms bonded with Flourine(ex-FH), Oxygen(ex-H2O), or Nitrogen(ex-NH3) are capable of hydrogen bonding because they are extremely polar. Even though the Nitrogen and Hydrogen atoms "share" atoms through covalent bonds, the electrons tend to hover closer to Nitrogen. This results in the Hydrogen atoms becoming partially positive in charge while the Nitrogen atom gains a partially negative charge. When a molecule of NH3 comes in contact with another molecule of NH3, the positive (Hydrogen) end of one molecule attracts the negative (Nitrogen) end of the other. This ability of the partially positive Hydrogen atoms to form strong bonds with other polar molecules (IE. Hydrogen Bonding) is why NH3 forms strong bonds.
What is the attraction between molecules of ammonia?
Nitrogen and Hydrogen have high electro negativity difference.So they can form hydrogen bonds.
How the lone pair of electrons of aromatic amines involved in hydrogen bonding despite their involvement in delocalization?
When lone pair of nitrogen becomes involved in resonance process (deloclization) the aromatic ring acquires the negative charge so it is also a negative pole for partially positive hydrogen of other molecule and when lone pair is on nitrogen then hydrogen bonding is also possible, it may be said that it is deloclized hydrogen bonding among the molecules.
Hydrogen bonds form?
When the atom hydrogen bonds directly to a small atom with a high electronegativity such as nitrogen, oxygen and fluorine. The Hydrogen atom then has a slightly positive charge and the other atom a slightly negative charge. This causes forces of attraction between molecules which is known as hydrogen bonding.
What type of bond is found in a water molocule?
Hydrogen bonds are found between water molecules. Hydrogen bonds are the electrostatic attraction (i.e. attraction between a positive charge and a negative one) between a slightly positive hydrogen atom and a slightly negative oxygen, nitrogen or fluorine. So in water, the attraction is between a slightly positive hydrogen atom and a neighbouring slightly negative oxygen atom. This is due to the electronegativity of oxygen, fluorine and nitrogen, which have a high electronegativity. In water, there are two bonds in each molecule, each linking one hydrogen to the oxygen atom. The electrons have less of an attraction to the hydrogen, and so the electron cloud is distorted in favour of the oxygen. So, as there are more electrons present near the oxygen relative to the hydrogen, the oxygen is more negative relative to the hydrogen, so causing polarity. Then, there is electorstatic attraction to neighbouring hydrogen or oxygen atoms.
Can water form an Ionic Bond?
No. Water exhibits mainly hydrogen binding, where hydrogen bonds to either fluorine, nitrogen, or oxygen. It could also be considered a type of polar covalent bond. Ionic bonding is strictly a positive-negative attraction between ions of opposite charges.

What is positive about NH3 Nitrogen has a strong positive charge hydrogen is negative or they are covalently bonded?
they are covalently bonded
What type(s) of intermolecular forces are expected between CH3CH2CONHCH3 molecules?
Amides have some hydrogen bonding, between the lone pair on the nitrogen and the hydrogen on the nitrogen in the next molecule. There will also be van der Waals forces and a little dipole-dipole attraction.
What is the difference between hydrogen bounding and covalent bonding?
Covalent bonding is a chemical bond formed when two atoms share electrons. Hydrogen bonding is a form of strong intermolecular attraction between molecules in which hydrogen is bonded to a highly electronegative element such as nitrogen, oxygen, or flourine. In these molecules the hydrogen atom(s) gain a partial positive charge and the electronegative atom gains a partial negative charge. The positive end of one molecule attracts the negative end of another and vice versa.
