9.

Three students assumed three factors which affect the strength of the hydrogen bond:

 Factor (1): The angle between the hydrogen bond polar bond in the same molecule.

 Factor (2): The number of bond pairs of electrons in the central atom.

 Factor (3): Difference in electronegativity between the hydrogen atom and the other atom binded to it.

Which of these factors are correct? ...............

a)

(1) , (2)

b)

(1) , (3) 

c)

(2) , (3) 

d)

(1) , (2) and (3)

10.

Molecules of HF , H2O and NH3 are all able to form hydrogen bonds.

What property of a molecule gives it the ability to form a hydrogen bond?

a)

A large difference in electronegativity between hydrogen and the atom it is bonded to

b)

The number of hydrogen atoms covalently bonded to an atom of a different element

c)

The ability to conduct electricity in aqueous solutions

11.

The electronegativities of nitrogen (3.04) and bromine (2.96) are very similar; however, nitrogen has a much greater ability to form hydrogen bonds than bromine. How can this difference in hydrogen-bonding ability be rationalized?

a)

An atom of bromine contains more protons in its nucleus and so attracts an atom of hydrogen strongly enough to form covalent bonds instead of hydrogen bonds.

b)

The larger size of a bromine atom means it forms weaker bonds to hydrogen and so does not form strong hydrogen bonds.

c)

An atom of nitrogen contains more lone pairs than an atom of bromine, giving it a greater ability to form hydrogen bonds.

12.

a)

HF

b)

NH3

c)

HCL

d)

H2O
