Are the statements about hydrogen bonding of the compound below with water true or false? this compound can act as a hydrogen-bo
nd donor. this compound can act as a hydrogen-bond acceptor
2 answers:
Here we have to judge the statement about the hydrogen bond is true or false for water molecule.
The both the statement about hydrogen bonding in water is true i.e. The water molecule can act as hydrogen-bond donor and acceptor.
The hydrogen bond is a weak interaction between a hydrogen atom and an electronegative atom.
In water (H₂O) there remains hydrogen atom (H) and also the electronegative atom oxygen (O). The donor property and acceptor property to produce hydrogen bond in water is shown in figure.
The donor and acceptor property of water is shown in the figure.
