Indicate whether hydrogen bonding is present in the following compounds or mixtures. If hydrogen bonding is present, indicate how two molecules can hydrogen bond. For example, in a mixture of water and methanol the Hof the H2O can hydrogen bond to the O in the CH3OH. Also possible is that the OH of the CH3OH can hydrogen bond to the O of the H2O. (Of course, the H on one H2O can hydrogen bond to the O on another H2O, and the H in CH3OH can hydrogen bond to the O in another CH3OH.)
dimethyl ether
dimethyl ether and ethanol
acetone and water
Hydrogen bond: Hydrogen bond is the electrostatic interactions between the highly electronegative atoms like F/O/N and the H atom bonded to one of this electronegative atom in same or different molecules. Depending on this definition the possibility of presence or absence of H-Bonding is decided.
