NEETChemistryChemical Bonding and Molecular Structure
In which type of molecule is an intramolecular hydrogen bond most likely to be found?
Options
- ANonpolar molecules
- BIonic compounds
- CMolecules containing highly electronegative elements
- DNoble gases
Correct answer
C. Molecules containing highly electronegative elements
Step-by-step solution
Intramolecular hydrogen bonds are most likely to be found in molecules containing highly electronegative elements like fluorine (F), oxygen (O), or nitrogen (N).
