Which of these chemical bonds is the weakest?

I Know Nothing asked:


Between:

•Covalent
•Ionic
•Dipolar
•Hydrogen

Which one is the weakest?

I’m pretty sure it’s between Dipolar and Hydrogen but I couldn’t narrow it down any further.

Thanks.

  1. Dipolar interactions are not really “bonds” as such but are definitely the weakest of the four listed
    Hydrogen bonds are next (although H-bonds in HF are stronger than some covalent bonds)
    Covalent and ionic are both much stronger in general
