Question
Intermolecular hydrogen bonding is strongest in :

B.Phenol
C.Formadehyde
D.Methanol
Solution
Hydrogen bonding is formed in compounds in which H is attached to highly electronegative element like F, O and N.
(i) In
, O is not having H atom so it shows very little H-bonding.
(ii) N is less electronegative than O, so H-bond formed by amines will be weak than that by alcohols.
