Chapter 21, Problem 143AE

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:The name of the functional group exhibiting hydrogen bonding intermolecular force is to be determined. It is also to be determined that $C{H}_{2}C{F}_2$ is exhibiting the hydrogen bond or not.

Concept introduction:

The hydrogen bonding can be defined as the attractive interaction between the hydrogen atom and highly electronegative atom such as fluorine, oxygen and nitrogen. The hydrogen bond exists between the electronegative atoms such as oxygen, nitrogen and fluorine of a functional group and the hydrogen atom of the other functional group.
