Hydrogen Bonding

Subject: Chemistry

Book: General Chemistry

Hydrogen bonding is a strong dipole–dipole interaction that occurs when H is bonded to highly electronegative atoms (N, O, or F). This bond significantly influences water’s high boiling point, ice’s expanded structure, and the double-helix structure of DNA. Hydrogen bonding also dictates protein folding and many biological processes. Mastering this concept is crucial for understanding a wide range of chemical and biological phenomena.
