Coordination number of hydrogen in a hydrogen bond isA. `8`B. `4`C. `2`D. `1` |
Answer» Correct Answer - C Hydrogen bond is written as `A-H……..B` or `A-H…….A` A and B represent O, N, or F. `A-H` is one molecule or part of a molecule and B is a part of another molecule. The dotted line represents the hydrogen bond. As we can see, H atom is sandwiched between two highly electronegative atoms. Thus, its largest coordination number is two. |
