Linus Pauling, a Nobel Prize laureate, said that Hoard "contributed significantly to ... the chemistry of certain elements such as boron, and the structure of regions of hemoglobins where oxygen molecules are bonded to iron." Hoard was also notable for his work on the Manhattan project where he overcame some important challenges with the uranium compounds. Hoard was a member of the National Academy of Sciences, a recipient of the award for Distinguished Service in the Advancement of Inorganic Chemistry from the American Chemical Society, a Guggenheim fellow.
