It can mean high surface tension. Hydrogen bonding occurs in water because each water molecule contains 2 hydrogen atoms, and that constitutes the positive end of that molecule with no electron present (other than the one tied up in the covalent bond with oxygen.) The oxygen end of the molecule is negative (because of unshared electrons.) The attaction between the positive end of one water molecule to the negative end of another is hydrogen bonding, and it explains many of water's properties, including surface tension, how water expands when it freezes, and even why snowflakes are 6-sided.

What is the formula of H2?
H2S is the formula of Hydrogen sulfide.
What is the percent by volume of hydrogen in the hydrosphere?
If you mean hydrogen in elemental form, it's darn near zero.
What is the percentage of hydrogen in hydrogen Bromide?
It all depends on what you're looking for. If you mean ratio of atoms, It is a one:one ratio, so 50% each If you mean mass, 1.0125% of the mass of one molecule is hydrogen and the other 98.9875% is bromine.
What colour is hydrogen peroxide solution?
Hydrogen Peroxide itself is as colorless as water. Hydrogen peroxide solution is a bit ambiguous, and could vary with what you mean by "solution".
What is the chemical name for Nitrogen Hydrogen and Iodine?
if by chemical name you mean element then: Nitrogen = N Hydrogen = H Iodine = I
Which molecule will not exhibit hydrogen bonding?
FON Remember this as it mean only hydrogen bonded to fluorine, oxygen and nitrogen will exhibit hydrogen bonding H2O ( water ) = hydrogen bonding as hydrogen is bonded to oxygen CO ( carbon monoxide ) = no hydrogen bonding Think electronegative differences.
What are the intermolecular forces of CH3NH2?
I assume you mean CH3NH2, methylamine. This has hydrogen bonding between molecules.
Does methane include a hydrogen bond?
I assume you mean intermolecular hydrogen bonding. No, because carbon is insufficiently electronegative. In contrast, carbon tetrachloride exhibits some hydrogen bonding because of the electronegativity of the chlorine atoms.
What does tornado-prone mean?
A tornado prone area has a relatively high incidence of tornadoes.
How do they bond within each other across strands?
I assume you mean the hydrogen bonding that holds bases of DNA together.
What does high water tension result from?
There are two possible answers to this question. If you mean the tension in a column of water, for example in the xylem, it is caused by hydrogen bonding between water molecules which enables the water column to resist breaking under the pull of gravity in the stem. If you mean surface tension, this is also caused by hydrogen bonding between water molecules. At the surface of water there are many hydrogen bonds pulling molecules inwards but none pulling them outwards. So the water behaves as if it had a "skin". This also causes water to form spherical drops.
What is the type of chemical bond within a water molecule?
The two hydrogen molecules and the oxygen molecule in water are joined by covalent bonding where they share the electron.
What does incidence of a disease mean?
Incidence of a disease refers to the number of new cases repoted recently
What does partially positive mean?
half positive ,and if u dont know what that means then go back to 2 grade ,,, Partially positive means that the positive charge is half the strength of a regular positive charge. That is why in hydrogen bonding where the hydrogen ions have a partial positive charge, hydrogen bonds are the weakest bonds.
What are bonds in chemistry?
Bonding means the particles are stuck together
What type of bond is present in Methanic gas?
I have never heard of methanic gas. If you mean methane, it is covalent, sp3 hybridised from each bond of the carbon bonding with the 1s orbital of each hydrogen
Why is ammonia a gas at room temperature?
Ammonia has a nitrogen with a lone pair and three hydrogens, so shouldn't there be extensive hydrogen bonding between molecules? I mean one hydrogen would attach to a nitrogen from ammonia and the next one would attach to another nitrogen from ammonia, etc
