How and why do the bonds between hydrogen and oxygen in water differ from bonds between hydrogen and carbon?

Hydrogen bonding exists between hydrogen and oxygen in water, becuase of the huge electronegativity difference between oxygen and hydrogen. This arises, due to the huge electron affinity of oxygen. Such interaction is not possible between carbon and hydrogen, as athe carbon is not as electronegative as oxygen.


How many bonds are between carbon and oxygen in carbon dioxide?

Well, i think that there are 5 bonds.


What is the number of bonds hydrogen carbon oxygen and nitrogen can make?

Bond for HydrogenBonds for Oxygen (in peroxides: 1 bond)Bonds for Nitrogen (in nitrate: 5 bonds. Even 1, 2 and 4 are possible)Bonds for Carbon


Where is energy from glucose contained?

Energy in glucose is contained in the chemical bonds between the atoms, mostly in the carbon-carbon bonds. during the oxidation of glucose oxygen atoms are inserted into the carbon-carbon bonds. Since the oxygen-carbon bonds exist at a lower energy level than the carbob-carbon bonds, the excess energy is released.


Between what two atoms do ester bonds occur?

How many bonds does carbon make with oxygen in carbon dioxide?

Carbon makes four bonds with oxygen in carbon dioxide.


What type of bonds does Ch3Oh have?

Yes, it can! The hydrogen bonds with oxygen thus forming a hydrogen bond. (OH)


What are held together by multiple covalent bonds?

Examples are oxygen, nitrogen , alkenes with carbon carbon double bonds, alkynes with carbon carbon triple bonds, the carbon oxygen double bonds in carbon dioxide


How many bonds are there in ethanol or dimethylether?

Ethanol has one hydrogen-oxygen bond, one carbon-oxygen bond, one carbon-carbon bond, and five carbon-hydrogen bonds. Dimethyl ether has six carbon-hydrogen bonds and two carbon-oxygen bonds.


What are examples of covalent bonds besides water?

Single, double, and triple carbon-carbon bonds; carbon-hydrogen bonds; carbon-halogen bonds; hydrogen-hydrogen bonds; nitrogen-nitrogen bonds; single and double carbon-oxygen bonds; silicon-oxygen bonds in silicone polymers.

Carbon can react to how many atoms at one time?

It depends on the atoms it is reacting with. If carbon it is 4 eg CH4 is methane, if oxygen it is two eg CO2 is carbon dioxide. This is because carbon can form four bonds, and carbon-carbon bonds are single bonds and carbon-oxygen bonds are double bonds.
