Question

Which of the following molecules can form hydrogen bonds? Group of answer choices NH3 NaH HI BH3 CH4

Answer 1

Answer:

NH₃

Explanation:

The hydrogen bond is a specially strong type of dipole-dipole interaction. For a hydrogen bond to occur, a molecule must have a hydrogen atom and a very electronegative atom, such as nitrogen, oxygen or fluorine. The hydrogen atom has a positive charge density while the heteroatom has a negative charge density.

Which of the following molecules can form hydrogen bonds?

NH₃ YES

NaH NO

HI NO

BH₃ NO

CH₄ NO
