What do you call the covalent bond that hold amino acids together?
Polypeptide bonds
Which attractive forces stabilize network solids?
Covalent Bonds~ you're welcome ^^
Are silicon compounds ionic or covalent?
They are covalent. Some are simple molecules, others are giant covalent structures.
Does covalent structures have high or low boiling points?
It depends on the type of structure; simple covalent structures (like water) generally have low boiling points, while giant covalent structures (like diamond) have high boiling points.
What type of covalent bond that joins two amino acids together in a polypeptide is best called?
peptide bond

peptide bond
How do the structures of the ionic and covalent compounds differ?
The covalent bond is based on the electrostatic attraction of ions; in the covalent bond electrons are shared.
What types of bonds are the ones that attach amino acids to each other in a growing polypeptide?
They are amide bonds -covalent. When an amino acid reacts with another, the carboxylic acid reacts with the amine forming an amide.
What is (covalent) compound?
COVALENT
Do giant covalent structures contain charged ions?
yes
What are the structures formed by covalent bonds called?
They are called molecules.
Does c2h2br2 have resonance structures?
No; all the bonds are single covalent.
Is covalent bond organic or inorganic?
covalent bond can be seen in organic as well as in inorganic compounds
