How many covalent bonds can Hydrogen form?
1
Can a molecule be polar with no polar covalent bonds?
No, not necessarily. It all depends on the symmetry of the molecule. Take a look at Carbon dioxide. It has a linear shape like this : O=C=O Although the bonds are obviously polar, the molecule is symmetrical. This makes the polarities of the bonds "cancel" each other, so to speak. So overall, this molecule is non-polar. If you take a look at Hydrogen chloride, on the other hand, it has a shape like this: H-Cl The molecule is assymmetrical, so this is a polar molecule.
What does molecule mean in a scientific term?
In scientific terms, a molecule is the smallest unit of a chemical compound that retains the properties of the compound. It consists of two or more atoms held together by chemical bonds. Molecules can be simple, like water (H2O), or complex, like DNA.
IS NO2 ironic or covalent?
'Ironic' ???? I think yoju mean 'IONIC'. NO2 (Nitrogen dioxide is a Covalent Compound).
What is the type of chemical bond within a water molecule?
A water molecule is held together by a polar covalent bond between the oxygen atom and the hydrogen atoms. This bond involves the sharing of electrons between the atoms, with the oxygen atom attracting the shared electrons more strongly than the hydrogen atoms.
What types of bonds do water form?
Water can form hydrogen bonds, which are weak electrostatic attractions between positively charged hydrogen atoms of one water molecule and negatively charged oxygen atoms of another water molecule. These hydrogen bonds give water its unique properties such as high surface tension, high specific heat, and cohesive behavior.
How do you figure out what the intramolecular forces in an atom are?
To determine the intramolecular forces in an atom, you need to analyze the structure of the atom. Intramolecular forces are the forces within a molecule, such as covalent bonds or metallic bonds. By examining the types of atoms involved and their arrangement in the molecule, you can determine the intramolecular forces present.

In a beaker of water the main water-water bonds are what?
They're called hydrogen bonds. It's a bond between the positive hydrogen and the negative oxygen in the water molecule. While the bond isn't as strong as the other three bonds (metallic, ionic, covalent), its strength gives water its surface tension and cohesion properties, as well as causing ice to float.

What type of bonds holds the nitrogenous bases together in the DNA molecule?
your teacher will probably accept hydrogen bonds, however it is more of an attraction not a physical bond

Is Agi iONIC OR MOLECULAR?
You misunderstand between Ionic & Molecular. A molecule can be either an ionic molecule or a covalent molecule. A molecule is a given substance. Ionic/Covalent is the type of bonding with in that molecule. 'Agi' Never heard of it. If you mean 'AgI'. (silver iodide). Then it is an ionically bonded molecule. Ag^(+) + I^(-) = AgI(s) NB Single letter elemental symbols are always a CAPITAL letter. Iodine/Iodide is 'I' NOT 'i'.
Are the electrons identical in covalent bonding?
Usually in covalent bonding, at least two electrons share each occupied energy level. However, this does not mean that there can not be two or more covalent energy levels in a single molecule; in fact, there usually are at least this many covalent energy levels, except in diatomic molecules.
Which atoms can have multiple covalent bonds?
If you mean having one atom, for instance a gas, and how many metals it can bond with, it depends on how many valence electrons the gas atom has. If we took Nitrogen (N) which has 5 valence electrons, it needs 3 more to form a covalent bond, so it has the ability to bond with 3 lithium (Li) atoms as they each have one valence electron, therefore creating a stable covalent bond.
