F-H...F is a strongest H bond
Answers
Hey mate!!
here's your answer....
»It is HF bond .
On a per bond basis, HF H bonding is strongest. However, as water has two H atoms, each molecule can form two H bonds so on a per molecule basis, water H bonding is strongest (this is evidenced by the boiling points of the three substances; NH3 < HF < H2O.)
*Additionally*
»You can compare the strength of the hydrogen bonding by comparing the electronegativities of the other elements. All the four elements, Br, F, Cl and I belong to the same group in the periodic table: group 17 named halogens. Then the kind of bonding they form is similar: polar covalent. You must know the trend of the electronegativities in the periodic table. Electronegativity decrease when you down across a group. Then the electronegativity of F is the higher of the group (indeed, it is the highest of all the 118 elements) . The higher the electronegativity the stronger the attraction that the halogen attracts the electrons and the stronger the hydorgen bonding. Then, the conclusion is that HF has the strongest hydrogen bonding.
Answer:
Hydrogen carries partial positive charge and fluorine carries partial negative charge hence HF bond is polar bond and forms hydrogen bond due to dipole -dipole interaction hence strongest hydrogen bond
