Which of the following statements is true about hydrogen bonding?
A
Cl and N have comparable electronegativities yet there is no H-bonding in HCl because size of Cl is large.
B
Intermolecular H-bonding results in decease in m.p. and b.p.
C
Ice has maximum density at due to H-bonding.
D
exists but
does not exist due to lack of H-bonding in HCl.
Answer
Cl and N have comparable electronegativities yet there is no H-bonding in HCl because size of Cl is large.
Explanation
Solution
: For hydrogen bonding the size of the atom should be small.
