MCQ
Which among the following compounds does not show hydrogen bonding
  • A
    Chloroform
  • B
    Ethyl alcohol
  • C
    Acetic acid
  • Ethyl ether

Answer

Correct option: D.
Ethyl ether
d
Ethyl ether does not have any hydrogen bonds as the hydrogen atom is not attached to the electronegative oxygen atom. Thus the magnitude of partial positive charge on $H$ is not enough to form a hydrogen bond.
