Hydrogen bond or coordinate bond - which is weakest?

Coordinate bond is a true primary bond while hydrogen bond is secondary bond (only attraction between opposite poles) so hydrogen bond is weaker.


What type of bond is hydrogen?

A hydrogen bond is a very strong dipole-dipole bond. A hydrogen bond can only form between hydrogen and a strong electromagnetic atom; fluorine, oxygen or chlorine.
