Can anyone plz explain me in detail about the differences b/w
1. covalent bonding
2. ionic bonding
3.hydrogen bonding ( and how and why hydrogen bonds are formed) ?

Help will be appreciated.
Covalent bonding : sharing of electrons; simple molecular structure has low melting and boiling point and bonded with either weak vaan der waals force (co2)or induced dipole induce dipole (I2) giant molecular structures have high mp n bp (sio2, diamond, graphite); cannot conduct electricity except graphite in which one electron is free to carry current.
Ionic bonding: transfer of electrons; all have high mp n bp; can conduct wlectricity in molten state.
Hydrogen bonding : when hydrogen is bonded with very highly electronegative element like F,N,O

yup that was paper 31
i also took paper 31 my highest temperature recorded in the 9th minute of experiment 2 was 34. I am not sure about this because all who took the same paper in my school reached to values 46 and 50. any idea whose correct?

Im not sure tbh, I did the paper and the experiment was exothermic, and the idea was that at the start of 3 minutes it would increase and then as time goes by, the temperature decreases, like I started with 45 then it was 50, highest was 57 then it decreased, to about 30-40 cant remember sorry but it should be correct, Btw the titration did you get 29.98 cm ?

i started with a temperature of 23 degrees at t=0 and one i added the zinc temperature increased till i reached to the 9th minute where the temperature was 34 degree's. i got my titration rough volume as 29.5 cm^3 and the other two trials were 29.3 and 29.4 cm^3.

i think you cant get your volume to 2 d.p it should be either a 30.0 cm^ if your botom of meniscus was more to the 30 than to the 29.9

dont worry, there's still paper 1 left... do well in that and insh allah u will get an A (y)
inshallah you too :D, i did well on paper 21, i have no problems with any of the theory papers but my main problem here is paper 31. Do you know how many marks will i loose if both my titration and temperature values are incorrect?.

as long as your calculations are correct, u won't lose all the marks, u will probably lose 3 marks for accuracy

Thank' you got my hopes up.That's the only thing i am sure of calculation and the data representation(table and rounding of value's).
