Question

Which of the following interaction lies in the range of 8 - 42 kJ/mol ?

A
$$H_2 ....... H_2O$$
B
$$F^- ..... HF$$
C
$$HCl ..... HCl$$
D
$$HCN ...... NH_3$$
Solution
Verified by Toppr

Correct option is D. $$HCN ...... NH_3$$
(a) $$H_2 ....... H_2O$$ Dipole-induced dipole interaction (van der Waals' force) energy < 8 kJ/mol
(b)$$HCl ..... HCl$$ Dipole-dipole interaction (van der Waals' force) < 8 kJ/mol
(c) $$F^- ..... HF$$ Ion-dipole H-bond (very strong H-bond energy) > 42 kJ/mol
(d) $$HCN ...... NH_3$$ H-bond energy ranges from 8-42 kJ/mol

Hydrogen bond is the term given to the relatively weak secondary interaction between a hydrogen atom bound to an electronegative atom and another atom which is also generally electronegative and which has one or more lone pairs and can thus acts as a base. We can give the following generalized representation of a hydrogen bond.
$$\overset{\delta-}{X} - \overset{\delta+}{H} .... Y$$
Bond dissociation energy of H-bond ranges from 8 to 42 KJ/mol, and the most commonly encountered hydrogen bonds are O-H...O, N-H...O and F-H...F.
