How and why do the bonds between hydrogen and oxygen in water differ from bonds between hydrogen and carbon?
Hydrogen bonding exists between hydrogen and oxygen in water, becuase of the huge electronegativity difference between oxygen and hydrogen. This arises, due to the huge electron affinity of oxygen. Such interaction is not possible between carbon and hydrogen, as athe carbon is not as electronegative as oxygen.
The bonds between hydrogen and oxygen in a water molecule are classified as?
Within the molecule, the bonds are covalent bonds. Between water molecules, they're hydrogen bonds.
How many covalent bonds does water have?
it has two bonds because the oxygen can make a bond with each hydrogen
What can water molecules form hydrogen bonds with?
Water is composed of Two Hydrogen atoms that form a polar covalent bond with an oxygen atom.
What are the bonds that hold hydrogen and oxygen called?
In water and many other compounds hydrogen and oxygen are held by covalent bonds.Between water molecules and between other polar molecules hydrogen of one molecule and oxygen of a different molecule are held by hydrogen bonds.
What are waters bonds?
Water has two main bonds: hydrogen bonds between other water molecules, and a covalent bond between hydrogen and oxygen.
What are water's intermolecular bonds?
Water has two main bonds: hydrogen bonds between other water molecules, and a covalent bond between hydrogen and oxygen.

Why water different from its components?
this because the chemical reaction between Oxygen & Hydrogen obviously the Hydrogen bonds between Oxygen & Hydrogen.

What type of bonds form water and ice?
hydrogen bonds Sincerely, #43 <3 :))

What type of bond is between oxygen atoms in water?
In water, oxygen atoms form covalent bonds with hydrogen.
What type of bond holds hydrogen and oxygen atoms in the molecule h2o?
The hydrogen and oxygen are held together by polar covalent bonds.
What kind of bond is formed between water molecules?
Hydrogen bonding is usually formed between one lone pair of electrons of the oxygen atom of one water molecule and the hydrogen atom of another water molecule. Hydrogen bonding forms as a result of electro-negativity difference between oxygen atom and hydrogen, with oxygen being more electro-negative.
