Hydrogen bonding is a particularly strong type of …… interaction

Options

A. dipole -induced dipole
B. dipole-dipole
C. ion-dipole
D. instantaneous dipole-induced dipole

Answer

B

Explanation

Hydrogen bond is a special type of dipole-dipole interaction between the `H` atom in a polar bond such as `N-H,O-H ,or F-H` , and an electronegative atom such as `O,N,or F` in another polar band . This interaction is written as
`A-H…B or A-H…..A`
`A` and `B` represent `O,N,or F,A-H` is one molecule or part of a molecule and `B` is a part of another molecule. The dotted line represents the hydrogen bond. Note that all these atoms possess at least one pair that can interact with the `H`atom in hydrogen bonding.
