Hydrogen Bonds
Hydrogen Bonds
Hydrogen bonds only exist between some specific types of molecules. These intermolecular forces are stronger than induced and permanent dipole-dipole interactions.


Hydrogen bonds
Hydrogen bonds
- A hydrogen bond is the name given to a very strong permanent dipole-permanent dipole force.
- With some elements, hydrogen can form extremely strong dipole-dipole interactions.
- When these are strong enough to be considered a bond, it is called a hydrogen bond.


Where are hydrogen bonds found?
Where are hydrogen bonds found?
- Hydrogen bonds are found when you have a hydrogen atom bonded to either oxygen, nitrogen, or fluorine.
- That hydrogen atom will form a strong permanent dipole-dipole interaction with another oxygen, nitrogen, or fluorine atom.
- Examples of liquids with hydrogen bonds are:
- Water.
- Hydrogen fluoride.
- Ammonia.


Why do hydrogen bonds form?
Why do hydrogen bonds form?
- When hydrogen is bonded to an extremely electronegative element, it develops a strong δ+ charge.
- Hydrogen is a very small atom, so it has a high charge density in this situation.
- This allows it to form a strong bond with any highly δ- charged atom.
