What would happen if water were not affected by hydrogen bonding?

∙ 11y ago
The melting and boiling point of water would be much LOWER than that of hydrogen sulfide, H2S (Mp. -82.30 °C (190.85 K) Bp. -60.28 °C (212.87 K).
Compare H2O with H2S: then the latter cannot form hydrogen bonds (unless being more acidic, it is hardly soluble in water), it is a gas at 0 oC and far below, while water is froozen to ice!
H2S even has heavier molecules (34 i.s.o. 18 g/mol)

∙ 10y agoIt woul be a gas at normal temperature and boil well below zero celsius. Many other poperties would be affected in particular it would not expand when it freezes.

∙ 12y agoThe earth would be like mars, because without hydrogen bonding water must be present in gaseous form as air, so no oceans,no seas,no rivers,no lakes and No life.

What is the most important role of hydrogen bonding between molecules?
Hydrogen bonding enables water molecules to bond to each other.
Why is water extremely cohesive?
Because of hydrogen bonding.
What factors does water dissolve in a substance?
water have hydrogen bonding so it can dissolve most of the substances it have partial +ve charge on H and partial _ve charge on O.it can make hydrogen bonding with poler solutions or substances.but it can not dissolve the the non poler substances because they can not make hydrogen bonding with water
Wetting agent that interferes with hydrogen bonding in water?
surfactant
What interferes with hydrogen bonding between water molecules?
A surfactant.
Is water fluid because of hydrogen or covalent bonding?
Hydrogen bonding
Is hydrogen bonding strongest between molecules of H20 H2S H2Se or H2Te?
Hydrogen fluoride HF has the strongest hydrogen bonding. Water H2O and ammonia NH3 have the next strongest hydrogen bonding.
Why is the density of water less in Cyclohexene?
Yes, water is denser than cyclohexene due to hydrogen bonding.
What of kind of bonds are found in water molecules?
hydrogen bonding between H2O and covalent bonding within the H2O molecule
What is the weakest type of bond and is involved in the bonding of water?
Water molecules are associated by hydrogen bonds but I suppose that these bonds are not the weakest.
Which molecule will not exhibit hydrogen bonding?
FON Remember this as it mean only hydrogen bonded to fluorine, oxygen and nitrogen will exhibit hydrogen bonding H2O ( water ) = hydrogen bonding as hydrogen is bonded to oxygen CO ( carbon monoxide ) = no hydrogen bonding Think electronegative differences.
What property of water allows it to move up through a plant?
hydrogen bonding
Type of bonding water molecules exhibit?
Within the molecule itself, water exhibits ionic bonding. Between the water molecules, there is hydrogen bonding.
Is hydrogen bonding a factor for H20?
greatly...its what gives water its unique properties
What is the most important role of hydrogen bonding between molecules?
Hydrogen bonding enables water molecules to bond to each other.
The tendency of water molecules to stay close to each other as a result of hydrogen bonding?
This is called hydrogen bonding.
What name is given to bonding between water molecules?
Bonding between water molecules is referred to as hydrogen bonds.
