Covalent bond.
Actually I think it's hydrogen bonds. I do not believe covanlent bonds contribute to structure at all. Think about the bonds between water molecules. The oxygen atom in a water molecule has a slightly negative charge, whereas the hydrogens have slightly postitive charges. When another water molecule comes along the opposite charges are attracted to one another thus giving the molecules a specfic structure. I don't know if this is a very good example, but it is the easiest way of explaining it without getting into specifics.

How do molecular sieves work to separate molecules based on size and shape?
Molecular sieves work by trapping molecules that are too large to pass through their pores, while allowing smaller molecules to pass through. This separation is based on the size and shape of the molecules, with larger molecules being excluded from passing through the sieve.
What general shape do water molecules have?
Water molecules have a bent or V-shape due to the repulsion between the lone pairs of electrons on the oxygen atom.
What is large molecules to small molecules called?
The process of breaking down large molecules into smaller molecules is called catabolism. This process releases energy that cells can use for various functions.
What is the molecules or ions has a trigonal planar shape?
SO3
Do catabolic reactions use energy to synthesize large molecules?
No, catabolic reactions break down large molecules into smaller ones, releasing energy in the process. Anabolic reactions, on the other hand, use energy to synthesize large molecules from smaller ones.
What bonds usually hold large molecules in their 3-dimensional shape teriary structure?
Hydrogen Bonds
The stability of the three-dimensional shape of many large molecules is dependent on?
The stability of the three-dimensional shape of many large molecules is dependent on interactions such as hydrogen bonding, disulfide bridges, hydrophobic interactions, and electrostatic forces between different regions of the molecule. These interactions help maintain the specific shape and structure required for the molecule to function properly. Any disruption to these interactions can lead to loss of stability and functional changes in the molecule.

What affects the shape of molecules?
The chemical compositon and the chemical bonds affect the shape of molecules..
What are three ways the cell membrane helps a cell stay balanced?
The cell membrane controls the movement of substances in and out of the cell, maintaining an internal balance of ions and molecules. It also helps in communication between cells by interacting with external signaling molecules. Additionally, the cell membrane provides structural support and shape to the cell.
What general shape do molecules have?
The general shape is "bent".
What is the evidence that molecules of g as large spaces between them compared to liquids and solids?
well,.....for gas when it is heated the molecules spread and have power and become into vapor, and compared to liquid and solid it is larger because liquid is a not a solid and does not have a fixed shape, and a solid has a fixed shape and gas can be put into anything!
What are lipids of large molecules?
Lipids are fats, or to be technical, they are non-polar organic molecules. They do form large molecules but they do not polymerize.
What kind of molecules cannot pass into your blood?
Large Food Molecules in The Small Intestine!
Why is trigonometry important for chemistry?
Some chemical reactions depend on the shape of molecules and the study of the shape of molecules - requires knowledge of trigonometry.
Cellulose molecules have what shape?
Cellulose molecules have a linear shape, with a repeating chain of glucose units bonded together.
Does DNA have large molecules?
no but has many small molecules
