No. A hydrogen bond occurs when H is bonded to a strongly electronegative element like oxygen in a compound. The oxygen attracts the electrons in the bond stronger than the hydrogen setting up partial positive and partial negative charges in the H and O respectively in a single molecule. A nearby molecule with the same charges will be attracted (opposites attract, even with these partial charges.) This attraction from one molecule to another is a hydrogen bond because it involves the hydrogen atom with a partial positive charge.

Is C2H5OH a ionic or convalent bond?
Covalent bonds: C-H and C-C Polar covalent bonds: C-O and O-H Ionic bonds: None
What is a description of the ionic bond and the covalent bond?
An example of covalent bond is ;H + H=H2 as covalent means sharing of electrons molecules is involved in covalent bond not ions. an example of ionic bond is; H+ + Cl-=H+Cl-
Is CH ionic or covalent?
C-H is a covalent bond because the electronegativity varies by less than 0.5 units
Why is the covalent bonds weak?
Covalent bonds are strong bonds, though they are generally weaker than ionic bonds.
Is CH3Li ionic or a covalent bond?
Ionic Well it is at least partially covalent (H-C). However, according to my OChem book it's 100% covalent but the C-Li bond is strongly polar. Apparently a bond is generally ionic if the electronegative difference between the two atoms is greater than 1.9 C =2.5 LI=1.0 2.5-1.0<1.9 therefore the bond is covalent.

Is HP an ionic or covalent bond?
The bond between P and H is covalent, eg in PH3
Is H2O ionic or covolant bond?
The O-H bond is covalent.
N-H bond in NH4Cl bond?
C Polar covalent
Which bonds in calcium hydroxide are ionic and covalent?
The Ca and OH bond is an ionic one (i.e. the Ca2+ 2(OH-)) and the O-H bond is a Polar Covalent bond
Is Ibuprofen a ionic or covalent bond?
Ibuprofen has covalent bonds like general organic substance. Ibuprofen has both pure covalent and polar covalent bonds. The bond C-H , which the electronegativity comes out to be 0.4, so it's pure covalet. The bond between C-O, and O-H , it is polar covalent.
What kind of bond is HCI?
Ionic bond between H+ ions and I- ions in HI molecule.
Is carbon tetrahydride ionic or covalent?
Carbon tetrahydride is an unusual name for methane. Because carbon and hydrogen have similar electronegativities the bond between C-H is covalent.
