Lab: Ionic and Covalent Bonds

Question 11 • Chemistry 1A - Mr. Kaan

A mixture of water (H2O) and ammonia (NH3):

Answer
A
hydrogen bonding
B
dipole–dipole interactions
C
dipole-induced dipole interactions
D
London dispersion forces

Explanation

Water and ammonia are both polar molecules, and each can participate in hydrogen bonding. Water’s hydrogen atoms can bond to the nitrogen atom in ammonia, and ammonia’s N–H bonds can interact with oxygen in water. Thus the mixture exhibits hydrogen bonding, a particularly strong intermolecular attraction.
