For which of the following compounds is hydrogen bonding the main intermolecular force?
Question 19 options:
a) CS2
b) HCN
c) HBr
d) H2
e) H2O2
1 answer
The answer is e) H2O2. Hydrogen bonding is the main intermolecular force in compounds that have a hydrogen atom bonded to an oxygen, nitrogen, or fluorine atom. H2O2 has two hydrogen atoms bonded to oxygen atoms, allowing for hydrogen bonding to occur between different molecules.
