Hydrogen bonds vary in strength from about 4 to 40 kJ/mol. Giventhat the hydrogen bonds between water molecules are at the high endof this range, how does the strength of a hydrogen bond betweenwater molecules compare with the strength of a H–O covalent bondwithin a water molecule? Do your values bear out the assertion thathydrogen bonds are about one tenth as strong as covalent bonds? Howdoes such a 'weak' force strongly influence the properties of ahydrogen bonding substance?
