what type of bond is found between water molecules?
ionic bond
covalent bond
hydrogen bond
metallic bond
Brief Explanations
- Covalent bonds involve the sharing of electrons between atoms. Ionic bonds are formed by the transfer of electrons, hydrogen bonds are weak attractions between molecules, and metallic bonds occur in metals with a sea - of - electrons model.
- Between water molecules, hydrogen bonds are present. Covalent bonds are within a water molecule (between H and O), ionic bonds are not relevant here as water is a covalent compound, and metallic bonds do not apply to water.
