Question

Hydrogen Bonds are weak, but they hold water molecules together and are difficult to break. Which one of the following images correctly shows hydrogen bonding between water molecules?

A. Image 1

B. Image 2

C. Image 3

D. Image 4

Answer 1

B is your answer hope this helps

Answer 2

Option C, image 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Hydrogen bonds are weak electrostatic bond that exist between hydrogen and an electronegative atom.

In order to have hydrogen bonding, the hydrogen must be bonded to an electronegative atom.

Generally molecules having hydrogen bonded to electrogegative atom, N, O and F show hydrogen bonding.

Hydrogen bonds may exist within a molecule or between two separate molecules.

Difference in electronegativity of hydrogen and electronegative atom develops dipole which responsible for electrostatic attraction.

In image 1 and 2, hydrogen bonding is shown between two oxygen atoms, which is not correct.

In image 4, hydogen bonding is shown between two hydrogen atoms, which is also not correct.

Hence, the correct option is image 3
