Question

Triatomic Hydrogen is called
(A) Deuterium.
(B) Hyzone.
(C) Orthoform.
(D) Hydronium ions.

Answer 1

Hint : We know that hydrogen bonding is the formation of Hydrogen bonds, which are attractive intermolecular forces. It is found that these arise due to the dipole-dipole interaction between a hydrogen atom which is bonded to a highly electronegative atom and another highly electronegative atom while it lies in the vicinity of the hydrogen atom.

Complete Step By Step Answer:
We can see that in a molecule, when a hydrogen atom is attached to another highly electronegative atom, then it attracts the shared pair of electrons towards itself and therefore this end of the molecules becomes negative whereas the other end becomes slightly positive. Then the negative end of one molecule is found to attract the positive end of the other molecule. And hence, a weak bond is formed between them that is called a hydrogen bond.
The molecule of water can be a proton donor (or) a proton acceptor. If it is a proton donor, then the water molecule would act as Bronsted-Lowry acid. If a water molecule could accept a proton, then it acts as a BronstedLowry base. Depending on the conditions, a molecule of water could play a role of acid and a base. A substance that donates protons (or) hydrogen ions is called an acid. Most acids are hydrogen atoms, which dissociates to form cation and anion in water. We have to know that hydronium ion is a significant factor when observing the chemical reactions, which take place in aqueous solution. Its concentration related to hydroxide is a measure of pH of the solution. The formation of Hyzone takes place only when there is acid present in water or just pure water. Thus triatomic hydrogen $\left( {{H}_{3}} \right)$ is called Hyzone.
Therefore, the correct answer is option B.

Note :
Remember that we should not get confused in between the terms Intermolecular Hydrogen Bonding and Intermolecular Hydrogen Bonding. As Intermolecular Hydrogen Bonding takes place between different molecules of the same or different compounds. For example: hydrogen bonding in alcohol, water.
