Which of the following type of bond is the strongest?
  1. Covalent
  2. Van der Waals
  3. London dispersion force
  4. Hydrogen
  5. Sulfide
Explanation
Answer: A - A covalent bond is one of the strongest types of bonds, and has similar strength to an ionic bond (not in the list). Van der Waals, London dispersion, and Hydrogen bonds are all relatively weak. Sulfide bonds occur as an interaction between sulfide functional groups and possess decent strength, but not nearly as much as a covalent bond.
