    Polar molecules Water is polar
  42. Covalent bonds
    Non Covalent bonds
    Hydrogen bonds
    • Covalent
    • Two pairs double bond
    • Three triple bond covalent

    Non covalent is much weaker

    Hydrogen is the attraction between particular charges. Holds biological molecules together.
