     In which compound, the hydrogen bonding is the strongest in its liquid phase   [Pb. CET  2001]

    A)                 \[HF\]  

    B)                 \[HI\]

    C)                 \[C{{H}_{4}}\]   

    D)                 \[P{{H}_{3}}\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

                    Compound containing highly electronegative element (F, O, N) attached to an electropositive element (H) show hydrogen bonding. Fluorine (F) is highly electronegative and has smaller size. So hydrogen fluoride shows the strongest hydrogen bonding in the liquid phase.
