Which of the following substances would exhibit hydrogen bonding?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Hydrogen bonding occurs when a hydrogen atom is covalently bonded to a highly electronegative atom (such as nitrogen, oxygen, or fluorine) and is attracted to an electronegative atom of another molecule. In option C, there is a hydrogen atom covalently bonded to a nitrogen atom and also another nitrogen atom present in the molecule, which allows for hydrogen bonding to occur between the two molecules. None of the other options have a similar arrangement of atoms that would allow for hydrogen bonding.
