Question

intramolecular hydrogen bonding is present in h2o or nh3​

Answer 1

H

2

O has the highest magnitude of H− bonding.

The extent of H−bonding depends upon electronegativity and the number of H−atoms available for bonding. Although F is more electronegative than oxygen, the extent of H− bonding is higher in water. There is a shortage of H in HF, whereas there are exactly the right numbers of H in H

2

O. Hence oxygen forms a huge ring like structure. In case of NH

3

, the H−bonding is limited because N has only one lone pair.

Answer 2

Answer:

yes both show intramolecular H bonding but the no of strenght of h bonding is more in water
