Question

question 21 (1 point)
hydrogen bonding is a particularly strong example of which of the following?
london dispersion forces
dispersion forces
dipole - dipole forces
covalent bonding

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Hydrogen bonding occurs when a hydrogen atom bonded to a highly electronegative atom (N, O, F) interacts with another electronegative atom. This is a specialized, stronger type of dipole-dipole force because the bond creates a permanent dipole, and the small size of H allows close, strong interaction. London dispersion forces and dispersion forces are weak, temporary dipole forces, while covalent bonding is intramolecular (not intermolecular like hydrogen bonding).

Answer:

dipole-dipole forces
