Arrange the following as stated.
"Increasing strength of hydrogen bonding `(X-H-X)"`
`O,S,F,Cl,N`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

S < Cl < N < O < F: Strength of hydrogen bonding in X–H–X depends on electronegativity as well as size of X. X with higher electronegativity and smaller size forms stronger H-bond. Hence, increasing order of strength of H-bond is S < Cl < N < O < F
