Question

H-bonding is not present in:

• A. glycerin.
• B. water.
• C. hydrogen Sulphide.
• D. hydrogen Fluoride.

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

hydrogen Sulphide.

A hydrogen bond is the electrostatic attraction between polar groups that occurs when a hydrogen $\left(H\right)$ atom bound to a highly electronegative atom such as nitrogen $\left(N\right)$, oxygen $\left(O\right)$ or fluorine $\left(F\right)$ experiences attraction to some other nearby highly electronegative atom.

Hydrogen bonding is not present in $H_{2}S$.
