Intermolecular Forces

Question 13 • *26-27 CFISD TX-Chemistry A CR

A mixture of water (H2O) and ammonia (NH3):

Answer
A
hydrogen bonding
B
dipole–dipole interactions
C
dipole-induced dipole interactions
D
London dispersion forces

Explanation

Water and ammonia both have hydrogen atoms bonded to highly electronegative atoms (oxygen and nitrogen), and each molecule has lone pairs that can attract those hydrogen atoms on the other molecule. This allows hydrogen bonds to form between H₂O and NH₃, so the best choice is hydrogen bonding.
