What is Characteristics of Hydrogen Bonds about?

1) Hydrogen bonding occurs between a hydrogen atom covalently bonded to a highly electronegative atom like F, O, or N, and another electronegative atom with a lone pair. 2) The hydrogen bond is stronger than van der Waals forces but weaker than covalent or ionic bonds. The strength can range from 1-2 kJ/mol for very weak bonds up to 161.5 kJ/mol for extremely strong bonds involving fluorine. 3) Hydrogen bonding plays a role in molecular structure and interactions due to its directional nature and ability
