Covalent bonds are much stronger than hydrogen bonds. Covalent bonds have bond energies from about 155 to 1000 kJ/mol. Hydrogen bonds usually have bond energies from 20 to 30 kJ/mol even though some hydrogen-fluorine hydrogen bonds can have bond energies greater than 155 kJ/mol.

No.

Hydrogen bonds are not actually bonds - they are a (strong) form of intermolecular forces. A hydrogen bond is the attraction between the hydrogen atom of a polar nitrogen-hydrogen, oxygen-hydrogen, of fluorine-hydrogen bond and an electronegative oxygen, nitrogen, or fluorine atom.

Intermolecular forces hold one molecule together with another molecule, and intramolecular forces (bonds) hold together the atoms of a molecule.

Covalent


What is stronger non polar covalent or polar covalent?

There is no general answer to this question: One of the strongest of covalent bonds is that between two nitrogen atoms in a nitrogen molecule, which is non polar covalent. In contrast, a carbon-carbon single bond, also usually non polar covalent, is relatively weak. The polar covalent bond between hydrogen and fluorine in the gas phase is very strong, while a hydrogen-iodine bond is relatively weak.

Is S and O ionic or covalent?

Polar covalent. The difference in electronegtivity is insufficient for an ionic bond


Is a hydrogen bond a polar covalent bond?

No. Both hydrogen atoms "pull" on the electrons with equal force, so the charge is the same at both ends.


Bond between hydrogen and carbon?

The bond between carbon and hydrogen is covalent, in which carbon and hydrogen share a pair of electrons.
