Any molecule that non-polar will not be affected by water. Such as oil, and most hydrocarbons.

Can hydrogen bond with water?
No. First of all, the oxygen is not willing to give up its electrons and even less willing to accept electrons. Second, water is polar and hydrogen is non-polar. Third, there is no entropic or enthalpic value value in hydrogen bonding with water. Finally, if hydrogen were to bond with water, then that would create a hydrogen anion which is extremely unstable. Thus, it can't bond with water at room temperatures, at least.
What is the name of a bond with a pair of elements that form a bond with the least ionic character?
The least ionic type of bond is a covalent bond.
What atomic or hybrid orbital on O makes up the sigma bond between O and H in water H2O?
Oxygen atoms in water form sp3 hybridized orbitals. This configuration of bond angles and bond lengths between the electron pairs and hydrogen atoms on oxygen allow for the least strain.
What type of bonds holds atoms together in a water molecule?
Covalent Bond .
What type of bond present in a water molecule?
COVALENT bond is present in water
How is bond energy affected by being immersed in water?
It depends what kind of bond. A covalent bond is barely affected at all. The strength of an ionic bond is essentially reduced to nothing because ionic compounds dissolve readily in water, which breaks all the ionic bonds.
Who would alkali metals least likely bond with?
Halogens.
What bond is present in a water soluble crystalline compound?
That would be an ionic bond.
Which bond or interaction would be difficult to disrupt when compounds are put into water?
Covalent Bond

What is the name of a bond with a pair of elements that form a bond with the least ionic character?
The least ionic type of bond is a covalent bond.
What foods contain fats that would have at least one double bond in their carbon skeleton?
Peanut oil, a plant product, is an unsaturated fat, which means it contains at least one double bond.
What atomic or hybrid orbital on O makes up the sigma bond between O and H in water H2O?
Oxygen atoms in water form sp3 hybridized orbitals. This configuration of bond angles and bond lengths between the electron pairs and hydrogen atoms on oxygen allow for the least strain.
What is Bond order of water?
The bond order of water is .5.
Is water a covalent or a metallic bond?
Water has a covalent bond.
Bond ratings are usually NOT affected by?
the company fiscal year
What bond would F - F be?
This would be an ionic bond. The electronegativity of Hydrogen is about 2.2 and the electronegativity of Fluorine is about 4.0. The difference is 1.8 which is greater than 1.7, the minimum difference for an ionic bond. Added: Or it is (at least) a very polar-covalent bond. Figures 1.7 or 1.8 are in the 'discussion' range
