Question
label the diagram to show how hydrogen bonds form. a label may be used once, twice, or not at all.
Hydrogen bonds form between a hydrogen atom covalently - bonded to a highly electronegative atom (such as oxygen, nitrogen, or fluorine) and another electronegative atom. In water ($H_2O$), the hydrogen of one water molecule is attracted to the oxygen of another water molecule. The oxygen is highly electronegative and has a partial negative charge, while the hydrogen has a partial positive charge.

The oxygen atom of one water molecule is labeled 'O'. The hydrogen atoms of the water molecule are labeled 'H'. The hydrogen atom that is part of the hydrogen - bonding interaction with the oxygen of another water molecule is labeled 'H'. The oxygen atom involved in the hydrogen - bonding from the other water molecule is labeled 'O'.
