Bond between hydrogen and carbon?
The bond between carbon and hydrogen is covalent, in which carbon and hydrogen share a pair of electrons.
What bond is between carbon and hydrogen or oxygen and hydrogen?
Covalent
What type of chemical bond is carbon and hydrogen?
Carbon and Hydrogen bonds together with covalent bonds, as in CH4.
Hydrogen bonding occurs in molecules where hydrogen is bonded to what elements fluorine carbon oxygen nitrogen hydrogen boron?
the hydrogen bonding is possible in oxygen, nitrogen,and fluorine
Which type of bond exists between an atom of carbon and an atom of fluorine?
polar covalent
What covalent bonds is the most polar with hydrogen Fluorine Carbon hydrogen or Nitrogen?
Fluorine and hydrogen
What type of bond is formed between carbon and fluorine?
The bond between carbon and fluorine is covalent. Carbon only forms covalent bonds, in all cases.
Is a ionic compound likely to form between fluorine and carbon?
Carbon forms covalent bonds with fluorine.
Most polar bond carbon to fluorine carbon to nitrogen carbon to oxygen or carbon to hydrogen?
Carbon to fluorine.
Is CH3F covalent?
Yes, as there are no metals in this compound.
What type of bond carbon fluorine?
Covalent bond
Bond between hydrogen and carbon?
The bond between carbon and hydrogen is covalent, in which carbon and hydrogen share a pair of electrons.
What elements does chlorofluorocarbon cfc refrigerants contain?
The Elements Chlorine Fluorine Carbon
What type of bond is formed between carbon and carbon?
The bond between carbon and fluorine is covalent. Carbon only forms covalent bonds, in all cases.
What is stronger non polar covalent or polar covalent?
There is no general answer to this question: One of the strongest of covalent bonds is that between two nitrogen atoms in a nitrogen molecule, which is non polar covalent. In contrast, a carbon-carbon single bond, also usually non polar covalent, is relatively weak. The polar covalent bond between hydrogen and fluorine in the gas phase is very strong, while a hydrogen-iodine bond is relatively weak.
What type of bond will carbon form with hydrogen?
Hydrogen form a covalent bond with carbon.
What bond is between carbon and hydrogen or oxygen and hydrogen?
Covalent
