Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Hydrogen bonds are weak attractive forces between hydrogen and certain other atoms, usually oxygen, nitrogen, or fluorine.

Answer: A
 Van der Waals forces are weak attractive forces between neutral molecules or between parts of the same molecule that arise from fluctuations in electron density.

Answer: B
 Ionic bonds are a type of chemical bond in which a metal cation binds to a non-metal anion, resulting in electrostatic attraction. They are generally stronger than hydrogen bonds.

Answer: D
 Covalent bonds are a type of chemical bond in which two atoms share a pair of electrons. They are generally stronger than both ionic and hydrogen bonds.
