Watch the animation and identify the correct conditions for forming a hydrogen bond.
A. A hydrogen bond is equivalent to a covalent bond.
B. A hydrogen bond is possible with only certain hydrogen-containing compounds.
C. Hydrogen bonding occurs when a hydrogen atom is covalently bonded to an N , O, or F atom.
D. The CH4 molecule exhibits hydrogen bonding.
E. A hydrogen atom acquires a partial positive charge when it is covalently bonded to an F atom.

Answer:

options B,C and E are correct conditions for forming hydrogen bonds.

Explanation:

In order for particles to stick together or shows certain characteristics, there must be a bond of attractions that is making them to be able to stay together. Some of these attractions are strong while some are weak. The kind of attraction that is being considered in this question  is the hydrogen  bonding which is considered as part of the weak forces of attractions.

In order for hydrogen bonds to occur, there must be hydrogen atoms [option B is correct] and a much more electronegative elements such as oxygen, Fluorine and Nitrogen. Hence, option C is correct.

Since the Fluorine or oxygen or nitrogen have much more electronegative properties than hydrogen, it causes a partial negative charge on  Fluorine or oxygen or nitrogen and a partial positive charge on the Hydrogen. Thus, option E is correct.
