Final answer:
A hydrogen bond is about 5% as strong as a covalent bond.
Step-by-step explanation:
A hydrogen bond is an intermolecular attractive force in which a hydrogen atom, that is covalently bonded to a small, highly electronegative atom, is attracted to a lone pair of electrons on an atom in a neighboring molecule. Hydrogen bonds are very strong compared to other dipole-dipole interactions, but still much weaker than a covalent bond. A typical hydrogen bond is about 5% as strong as a covalent bond.
