Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Hydrogen bonds are the weakest chemical interaction because they involve a weak attraction between a hydrogen atom in one molecule and an electronegative atom (such as nitrogen, oxygen, or fluorine) in another molecule. Ionic bonds involve the transfer of electrons and the formation of positive and negative ions, and covalent bonds involve the sharing of electrons between atoms. Both ionic and covalent bonds are stronger than hydrogen bonds.
