question 6
h - o has a stronger bond than h - n.
a true
b false

Explanation:

To determine if H - O has a stronger bond than H - N, we consider electronegativity. Oxygen (O) is more electronegative than nitrogen (N). The difference in electronegativity between H and O is greater than between H and N. A larger electronegativity difference leads to a more polar and stronger covalent bond (or in the context of bonds like in molecules, the bond strength is related to electronegativity differences). So, the H - O bond is stronger than the H - N bond.

Answer:

A. True
