Study Notes
Hydrogen Bonding
- A hydrogen bond is a type of intermolecular force, a weak bond between molecules
- Hydrogen bonds typically involve the element hydrogen (H) bonded to a highly electronegative atom, such as oxygen (O), nitrogen (N), or fluorine (F)
- The high electronegativity of these atoms pulls the shared electrons closer to themselves, creating a partial positive charge on the hydrogen atom and a partial negative charge on the electronegative atom
Water Properties and Hydrogen Bonding
- Hydrogen bonding in water is responsible for its high boiling point and surface tension
- Hydrogen bonding between water molecules gives water its unique properties, such as its high boiling point and surface tension
