calcium, hydrogen, nitrogen, and oxygen
-
carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, and oxygen
-
hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, and helium
-
carbon, helium, nitrogen, and oxygen

Question 3
Question
The ability of an atom to attract electrons in a bond with another atom is termed its
Answer
-
hydrophobicity
-
electronegativity
-
solubility
-
valence
-
both a and b
Question 4
Question
Hydrogen bonds differ from covalent bonds in that
Answer
-
covalent bonds can form between any type of atom, and hydrogen bonds form only between H and O.
-
covalent bonds involve sharing of electrons, and hydrogen bonds involve the complete transfer of electrons
-
covalent bonds result from equal sharing of electrons, but hydrogen bonds involve unequal sharing of electrons.
-
covalent bonds involve sharing of electrons between atoms, but hydrogen bonds are the result of weak attractions between a hydrogen atom of a polar molecule and an electronegative atom of another polar molecule.
-
covalent bonds are weak bonds that break easily, but hydrogen ions are strong links between atoms that are not easily broken.
