Hydrogen bonding occurs between hydrogen and strongly electronegative atoms like F, N, O . In water or ice hydrogen bonding occurs as there is
hydrogen as well as oxygen both are present. Water has 2 hydrogen atoms and 1 oxygen atom. The oxygen of one water molecule has two lone
pairs of electrons, each of which can form hydrogen bonds with hydrogen on other two water molecules.
Each water molecule is H-bonded to 4 neighbouring molecules.
4. (2)
Butan-1-ol can undergo hydrogen bonding due to the presence of an − OH group, ethoxyethane (also known as diethyl ether) can also participate
in hydrogen bonding.
Even though there are no hydrogen atoms directly bonded to a highly electronegative atom (like F, O, or N ) in ethoxyethane, the molecule still
has polar C − O bonds that can lead to dipole-dipole interactions with other polar molecules.
Owing to intermolecular hydrogen bonding in butanol, it has higher boiling point than ethoxyethane.

The percentage of covalent character in an ionic bond is determined by the polarization power of the cation, the polarizing ability of the anion, and
the degree of distortion of the anion's electron cloud that occurs due to the electric field of the cation. The polarization power of a cation refers to
its ability to distort the electron cloud of the anion in the ionic bond. So the options A, B, C are correct.

moments are not cancelled each other due to their tetrahedral structure. The 1, 4-dichlorobenzene, trans-butene, benzene have zero dipole moment
due to cancellation of bond moments. The 1, 3-dichlorobenzene, cis-butene, anisidine has non-zero dipole moment.

oxygen atom.
The acetylide ion consists of two carbon atoms bonded together by a triple bond (C ≡ C) with a lone pair of electrons on the terminal carbon atom. So it is
linear.
The NH 4

SO2 is a bent molecule with a central sulfur atom bonded to two oxygen atoms. The oxygen atoms are more electronegative than sulfur, causing a separation of
charge. This results in a bent molecular geometry and a net dipole moment, making SO a polar molecule.2
NH3 is a trigonal pyramidal molecule with a central nitrogen atom bonded to three hydrogen atoms. Again, the electronegativity difference between nitrogen and
hydrogen leads to a separation of charge. The arrangement of the atoms in NH gives it a net dipole moment, making it a polar molecule.

The oxidation state of +5 in pentahalides is more covalent as compared to the +3 oxidation state in trihalides. Due to the higher positive oxidation state of the
central atom in pentahalide state, these atoms will have larger polarising power than the halogen atom attached to them since the polarising power is directly
proportional to the charge. More is the polarisation, larger will be the covalent character of the bond. Hence, due to larger polarisation of bond in pentahalide
state as compared to trihalide state, the SbCl is more covalent than SbCl .

2 2O is having two sigma bond
pairs and a lone pair hence, it exhibits angular or V-shape structure. So, both molecules are having same shape. But double bond-double bond repulsions are
greater than single bond repulsions, hence, the bond angle in sulphur dioxide is greater than water.
