Water molecules contain _____________ hydrogen bond/s.(a) intermolecular(b) intramolecular(c) both intermolecular and intramolecular(d) neither intermolecular nor intramolecularThe question was asked in exam.I would like to ask this question from Hydrogen Bonding topic in division Chemical Bonding and Molecular Structure of Chemistry – Class 11

Answer»

The correct choice is (a) intermolecular

For explanation I would say: In a water MOLECULE, the HYDROGEN bonds are formed between other MOLECULES but not within the same molecule. The presence of hydrogen between molecules is intermolecular hydrogen bond and presence of hydrogen bond in the molecule itself is INTRAMOLECULAR hydrogen bond.
