Questions and Answers

What types of molecules are primarily involved in hydrogen bonding?

Molecules with a high number of double bonds

Molecules with hydrogen atoms bonded to very electronegative elements (correct)

Molecules containing only carbon atoms

Molecules that are nonpolar

Which of the following accurately describes the nature of the hydrogen atom involved in hydrogen bonding?

It is neutral and has no polar character.

It carries a positive charge and is involved in ionic bonds.

How does the strength of hydrogen bonds compare to covalent bonds within a molecule?

Hydrogen bonds are stronger than covalent bonds.

Hydrogen bonds are weaker than covalent bonds. (correct)

Hydrogen bonds are equivalent in strength to covalent bonds.

Hydrogen bonds can only form in the absence of covalent bonds.

Study Notes

Hydrogen Bonds

Hydrogen bonds represent the strongest type of intermolecular force.
These bonds form between molecules containing hydrogen atoms bonded to highly electronegative elements like fluorine, oxygen, or nitrogen.
The electronegativity difference results in a highly polarized hydrogen, creating a partial positive charge (δ+).
This δ+ hydrogen atom is attracted to the lone pairs of electrons on a small, highly electronegative atom in a neighboring molecule.
These hydrogen bonds bridge two molecules (larger) than the internal covalent bonds within the molecules
The hydrogen bond is often depicted as a dashed or dotted line.
