Why is hydrogen bonding more extensive in water than in hydrogen fluoride?
A water molecule can form up to 4 hydrogen bonds as it has 2 hydrogen atoms and 2 lone pairs. A hydrogen fluoride molecule has 1 hydrogen atom and can form 2 hydrogen bonds.
How many H bonds can water form?
A single water molecule can make three to four hydrogen bonds. A single water molecule can usually make three hydrogen bonds but in some cases it can make up to four. Hint: If your high school Biology teacher is asking you this question the number of hydrogen bonds a molecule of water can make is almost always three (just remember one bond for each element).
What is the maximum number of covalent bonds an element with atomic number of 15 can make with hydrogen?
The element with an atomic number of 8 is Oxygen. It has 2 electrons in the first shell and 6 in the second, leaving a valence of 2. Oxygen, therefore, can form covalent bonds with only two Hydrogen atoms. This is also known as water.
How many bonds are in water?
There are 2 bonds in water(H2O) but molecules of water will interact with each other through hydrogen bonding.
Which element combines with Hydrogen to form water?
Hydrogen. 2 hydrogens to be exact

hydrogen bonds Sincerely, #43 <3 :))

How many bonds can selenium form with hydrogen?
Each hydrogen can form one bond with selenium. Each selenium atom can form two bonds, one with each hydrogen (2 hydrogen atoms total).
What contains water molecules and the hydrogen bonds between water molecules explain most of water's life-supporting properties?
I'm pretty sure it's Hydrogen Bonding. :) -K.

How does ATCG bond?
They form hydrogen bonds with their complementary base pair. There are 3 hydrogen bonds that link Cytosine and Guanine, however there are only 2 hydrogen bonds that link Adenine and Thymine.
The two sides of the dna molecule are held together by what?
Hydrogen bonds between the purines and pyrimidines. A and T form 2 hydrogen bonds, and G and C form three.

How are bonds between A-T and G-C different?
It is the hydrogen wich bonds between AT and GC the difference is in the number AT have 2 hydrogen bonds GC have 3 hydrogen bonds
How many covalent bonds does water have?
it has two bonds because the oxygen can make a bond with each hydrogen
