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.

Why covalent bond is stronger than hydrogen bond?
A covalent bond involves the sharing of electrons, while hydrogen bonding does not.
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 :)
What is a bond in which atoms share electrons?
Covalent bonds SHARE electrons. Ionic bonds TRANSFER electrons.
Is HF molecular or ionic?
HF is molecular (aka covalent) because it is a bond between two nonmetals in which electrons are shared. In the HF bond, Fluorine has six valence electrons and shares two electrons with Hydrogen. Hydrogen only has these two electrons because it only has a max of two electrons on its outer valence shell. Fluorine has an electronegativity of 4.0 (the highest on the Periodic Table), which is greater than Hydrogen's 2.2, so therefore Fluorine would be considered slightly negative in the bond, and Hydrogen would be slightly positive.It is not ionic because in an ionic bond, electrons are not shared, they are transferred.
What is a oxidation bond?
the bond in which electrons are lost or oxygen atoms are gained or hydrogen atoms are lost.
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.
Why covalent bond is stronger than hydrogen bond?
A covalent bond involves the sharing of electrons, while hydrogen bonding does not.
Which chemical bond does not involve the sharing or exchange of electrons?
hydrogen bond
Bond between hydrogen and carbon?
The bond between carbon and hydrogen is covalent, in which carbon and hydrogen share a pair of electrons.
As a bond between a hydrogen atom and a sulfur atom is formed electrons are?
The pair of electrons is shared to form a covalent 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 :)
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.
What is a bond in which atoms share electrons?
Covalent bonds SHARE electrons. Ionic bonds TRANSFER electrons.
What happens to electrons after a covalent bond is formed?
The electrons are shared
The bond formed when electrons are shared between atoms?
Hydrogen
