No, electrons are never shared or transferred in a hydrogen bond. A hydrogen bond is just an attraction between partially positive particles and partially negative particles.

Electrons that a hydrogen atom shares?

Hydrogen atoms share electrons in a covalent bond.


How is a hydrogen bond different from a ionic bond?

Covalent and ionic bonds all have a shared pair of electrons and hydrogen has a pair of unshared electrons.


What kind of bond will hydrogen and phosphorus?

Hydrogen and phosphorus can form a covalent bond by sharing electrons. This type of bond results in a molecule where the hydrogen atom and the phosphorus atom are held together by the shared pair of electrons.


What kind of bond is formed between hydrogen and chlorine?

A polar covalent bond is formed between hydrogen and chlorine. This bond is formed by the unequal sharing of electrons, with chlorine attracting the electrons more strongly than hydrogen.


Is oxygen and hydrogen a ionic bond?

No, oxygen and hydrogen do not form an ionic bond. When oxygen and hydrogen bond to form water, they share electrons in a covalent bond, where electrons are shared between the atoms rather than transferred.


What is the difference between a hydrogen bond acceptor and a hydrogen bond donor?

A hydrogen bond acceptor is a molecule that can accept a hydrogen bond by having a lone pair of electrons available to form a bond with a hydrogen atom. A hydrogen bond donor is a molecule that can donate a hydrogen atom with a slightly positive charge to form a bond with a hydrogen bond acceptor. In simple terms, a hydrogen bond acceptor receives a hydrogen bond, while a hydrogen bond donor gives a hydrogen bond.


What kind of bond holds hydrogen atoms together in a hydrogen molecule?

The two atoms share their electrons - so it is a covalent bond ie a shared pair.


Bond between hydrogen and carbon?

A hydrogen and carbon bond is a type of covalent bond where the electrons are shared between the two atoms. This bond is very strong and stable, making it a common bond in organic molecules. The bond is formed when the hydrogen atom shares its electron with the carbon atom, resulting in a stable molecule.


What bond does hydrogen and germanium make?

Hydrogen and germanium can form a covalent bond, where they share electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration. This bond is typically formed by sharing a pair of electrons between the two atoms.


What happens to electrons after a covalent bond is formed?

The electrons are shared


Why is a molecule of hydrogen H2 is described as nonpolar?

Because the two atoms that share their electrons in a hydrogen-to-hydrogen covalent bond are identical, there is no favored place for the electrons in this bond that is nearer to one of the atoms than to the other. This is the definition of a non polar bond.


Is H2o covalent bond or ionic bond?

it is a polar covalent bond. Scince oxygen does not follow the octet rule(only 8 electrons, needs ten) and hydrogen has one electron, two hydrogen electrons plus eight oxygen electrons equal ten :)
