Question

Two examples of the effects of hydrogen bonding on the properties of organic compounds.

Answer 1

Increase in the melting point, boiling point, solubility, and viscosity of many compounds can be explained by the concept of hydrogen bonding. The fact that ice is less dense than liquid water is due to a crystal structure stabilized by hydrogen bonds.

Answer 2
