How are hydrogen bonds different from covalent bonds?
Hydrogen Bonds can be broken easy, Covalent Bonds are hard to break apart, but both are needed to hold different parts of DNA strands together
When water evaporates do the covalent bonds between O atoms and H atoms break or do the hydrogen bonds break and why?
The hydrogen bonds break.
Is ionic chemical bond the strongest?
The answer is no. If you are comparing them with covalent or metallic bonds, then covalent is the strongest in general. There are, obviously, exceptions, but in general ionic bonds are easier to break than covalent bonds.
Do covalent bonds have melting points?
Particles bond to achieve a stable electronic configuration, such as the octet structure. A covalent bond is when 2 atoms (usually non-metals) share electrons with each other such that both atoms can get to gain the negative charge of 1 or more electrons. Such bonds are hard to break because they are very strong. Hence, molecules with covalent bonds are hard to melt.
When a molecular solid mixes with water do the covalent bonds within molecules break?
No, dissolving does not break covalent bonds. The molecules separate because intermolecular forces such as dipole-dipole attractions are disrupted.

What is required to break covalent bonds between atoms?
Cheese
What substance forms when bonds between atoms are broken?
Covalent bonds are the easiest to break, since they are the easiest to make. But no substance is made when bonds break.
When a molecular solid mixes with water do the covalent bonds within molecules break?
No, dissolving does not break covalent bonds. The molecules separate because intermolecular forces such as dipole-dipole attractions are disrupted.
How can a covalent bond break?
covalent bonds can be broken if energy is added to a molecule. this formation of covalent bond is accompanied by energy given off.
Does boiling water break covalent bonds?
No, it only overcomes intermolecular forces.
Is covalent bond the strongest bond?
yes and no. Simple discrete molecules have simple covalent bond and its melting point is very low because little energy is needed to overcome its simple covalent bonds. But it can be very strong when there are plenty of bonds like in diamond- which has a giant covalent lattice. (there are alot of these covalent bonds holding it together) so alot of energy is needed to break the bonds.
What type of bond is very hard and brittle?
ionic bonds
What are the different types of chemical bonds?
Ionic bonds, Covalent bonds, Hydrogen bonds, Polar Covalent bonds, Non-Polar Covalent bonds, and Metallic bonds.
