Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
This type of bond results from an electronegative atom bonded to a hydrogen attracted to another electronegative atom.

polar covalent bond
B
nonpolar covalent bond
C
hydrogen bond
D
ionic bond
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Hydrogen Bonding. Hydrogen bonding is a special type of dipole-dipole attraction between molecules, not a covalent bond to a hydrogen atom. It results from the attractive force between a hydrogen atom covalently bonded to a very electronegative atom such as a N, O, or F atom and another very electronegative atom.

Detailed explanation-2: -The hydrogen molecule is the simplest substance having a covalent bond. It forms from two hydrogen atoms, each with one electron in a 1s orbital. Both hydrogen atoms share the two electrons in the covalent bond, and each acquires a helium-like electron configuration.

Detailed explanation-3: -Hydrogen bonds Because of this slight positive charge, the hydrogen will be attracted to any neighboring negative charges. This interaction is called a hydrogen bond. Hydrogen bonds are common, and water molecules in particular form lots of them.

Detailed explanation-4: -This bond is called the hydrogen bond. As a result of hydrogen bonding, a hydrogen atom links the two electronegative atoms simultaneously, one by a covalent bond and the other by a hydrogen bond.

Detailed explanation-5: -A hydrogen bond is the attractive force between the hydrogen attached to an electronegative atom of one molecule and an electronegative atom of a different molecule. Usually the electronegative atom is oxygen, nitrogen, or fluorine, which has a partial negative charge. The hydrogen then has the partial positive charge.
