Does h2o contain a coordinate covalent bond?
No. Although the bonds in H2O are covalent, they are not coordinate covalent bonds.
What is the coordinate bonding and what is the difference between it and the covalent bonding?
Covalent bonding involves two or more atoms sharing electrons. Coordinate covalent bonding is just an attraction that molecules have for other molecules based on the asymmetrical distribution of electrons in those molecules, creating negatively charged and positively charged regions (and hence, an attraction between the negatively charged regions of one molecule and the positively charged regions of another molecule).
Are molecules covalent or ionic?
Molecules are covalent.
Are the atoms in one water molecule covalently bonded to atoms in a neighbouring water molecule?
No, the atoms within a given water molecule are covalently bonded to each other, but the molecules are not covalently bonded to other water molecules. Instead they have what is called a coordinate covalent bond. In a covalent bond, atoms share electrons. In a coordinate covalent bond, there is no sharing of electrons but there are regions of electric charge (water molecules have a positive and a negative end to them due to the pattern in which the electrons are distributed) and that causes an electrostatic attraction.
What is type of covalent bond in which one an atom donates both electrons?
single
What is the ability of molecules of different kinds of matter to stick together?
Molecules stick together by various types of chemical bonding, typically covalent or coordinate covalent bonds.
Does h2o contain a coordinate covalent bond?
No. Although the bonds in H2O are covalent, they are not coordinate covalent bonds.

A type of bond that is very important in determining the properties of water and of important biological molecules such as proteins and DNA?
Coordinate covalent
Strontium Chloride Hexahydrate ionic or molecular?
strontium is an alkali metal so always forms ionic bond with halogens as chlorine but 6 water molecules are attached through coordinate covalent bond with strotium but overall compound is consider as ionic compound.
Are molecules covalent or ionic?
Molecules are covalent.
What is an example of a coordinate covalent bond?
ozone. One of the bonds between the oxygen atoms is a coordinate covalent bond.
When one atom contributes both bonding electrons in a single covalent bond the bond is called a?
You think probable to a coordinate covalent bond.
How are covalent bonds different from other covalent bonds?
b)a coordinate covalent bond is a covalent bond in which one atom contributes both bonding electrons, In a coordinate covalent bond, the shared electron pair comes from one of the bonding atoms. Once formed, a coordinate covalent bond is like any other covalent bond

Is a coordinate covalent bond stronger than a covalent bond?
Coordinate covalent bonds are neither stronger nor weaker than regular covalent bonds. They behave just the same way.
