Interpretation:
The hydrogen bond is to be described and the condition which is responsible for formation of hydrogen bond is to be explained.
Concept introduction:
Hydrogen bonding interaction involving a hydrogen atom which located between a pair of other atoms having a greater affinity of electrons. These types of bonds are weaker than an ionic bond or covalent bond.
Answer to Problem 96A
The hydrogen bond is the bond which formed between the hydrogen atom an electronegative atom of different element.
In the hydrogen bonding, the hydrogen bond sometimes behaves as acceptor atom and sometimes it behaves as a donor atom.
Explanation of Solution
The hydrogen bond is the bond which formed between the hydrogen atom an electronegative atom of different element.
The condition which is satisfies by the atom to form the hydrogen bond is given as:
- For a hydrogen bond in which hydrogen atom is behave as a donor atom, the other bonded atoms must be a high electronegative atom.
- For a hydrogen bond in which it behaves as a acceptor atom, the other bonded atom is must be a less electronegative atom.
A hydrogen atom is bonded with other atom only if the other atom is an electronegative atom.
