in which situation would hydrogen bonding be present?
a. when hydrogen is attached to n, f, or o
b. when hydrogen exists as an ion in solution
c. when hydrogen is attached to c, s, or p
d. when hydrogen atoms bond together to form h₂
Hydrogen bonding occurs when hydrogen is covalently bonded to a highly electronegative atom such as nitrogen (N), fluorine (F), or oxygen (O). These electronegative atoms pull the shared - electrons in the bond towards themselves, creating a partial positive charge on the hydrogen atom which can then interact with a lone - pair of electrons on another electronegative atom.
