Peptide bond is a covalent bond.
Covalent bonds are stronger than hydrogen bonds.
Think of electrons as the glue of a molecule. A covalent bond has electron interaction uniformity(They're glue is pretty consistent between two atoms). Now hydrogen bonds don't have as much glue; think of it as a few smeared drops of glue. So why do they have not as much glue(a weaker interaction than peptide bonds)? That's because Hydrogen bonds have hydrogens bonded to an electronegative atom(that means they like electrons). An example of an electronegative atom would be oxygen. Oxygen(or any given electronegative atom) will briefly take hydrogen's only electron when they pair up. So hydrogen's electron spends more time around the oxygen because it takes longer to circle around oxygen due to it being bigger than hydrogen. We know electrons have negative charge, so what happens when hydrogen's electron is over near the oxygen? Hydrogen gets a partial positive charge, and oxygen gets a partial negative charge!

What molecular bond is the strongest?
hydrogen bonding in molecules is stronger
How is the S-H bond categorized?
The bond between sulfur and hydrogen is polar covalent. By convention, this bond is not polar enough to involve in hydrogen bonding.
Which is the appropriate representation of the H - F bond?
The bond between hydrogen and fluorine is polar covalent and it can exhibit hydrogen bonding.
Is acetic acid polar or or non-polar bonds?
Acetone has the formula (CH3)2CO. The bonds between the carbon and hydrogen atoms are covalent, and are sigma bonds. The bonding beween carbon and oxygen is a double bond. The carbon atom is sp2 hybridised. The bond involves a sigma bond and a pi bond This bond is polar because of the difference in electronegativity of carbon and oxygen.
Which type of bonding is formed by HCl?
Hydrogen chloride (diatomic molecule) has a polar covalent bond.
What molecular bond is the strongest?
hydrogen bonding in molecules is stronger
How is the S-H bond categorized?
The bond between sulfur and hydrogen is polar covalent. By convention, this bond is not polar enough to involve in hydrogen bonding.
Which bond is not a pure chemical bond?
Hydrogen bonding is really not bonding, but only a polar interaction. H2 [diatomic hydrogen] is an elemental bond in which gas atoms can cohabit.
Which is the appropriate representation of the H - F bond?
The bond between hydrogen and fluorine is polar covalent and it can exhibit hydrogen bonding.

The carbon atom is sp2 hybridised. The bond involves a sigma bond and a pi bond This bond is polar because of the difference in electronegativity of carbon and oxygen.
What is the strongest IMF for HI?
Hydrogen Bonding (H-Bonding). Group 7 elements are extremely electro-negative. The hydrogen completes the octet with an H-Bond, one of the strongest Inter Molecular Forces.
What is the bonding of H2?
Diatomic hydrogen is held together by a single non-polar covalent bond.
Which type of bonding is formed by HCl?
Hydrogen chloride (diatomic molecule) has a polar covalent bond.
Does a hydrogen bond have a weak chemical attration between polar molecules?
No. Hydrogen bonding is a form of strong intermolecular attraction
What is the strongest intermolecular force in H2O?
I would imagine Hydrogen Bond. It is hydrogen bond because hydrogen fluoride and water have a large dipole. The electronegative atom attracts electrons away from the hydrogen atom leaving the hydrogen atom almost unshielded proton with a partial positive charge.
What is h bonding?
It can either be a polar oovalent bond as in ammonia or could refer to an intermolecular hydrogen bond (between molecules of ammonia.
What are the intermolecular forces of CH3NH2?
I assume you mean CH3NH2, methylamine. This has hydrogen bonding between molecules.
