  2. Fluorine compounds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluorine_compounds

    In some ways the substance behaves more like water, also very prone to hydrogen bonding, than one of the other hydrogen halides, such as HCl. [32] [33] [34] Hydrogen bonding amongst HF molecules gives rise to high viscosity in the liquid phase and lower than expected pressure in the gas phase. Hydrogen fluoride does not boil until 20 °C in ...

  3. Hydrogen fluoride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogen_fluoride

    Hydrogen fluoride does not boil until 20 °C in contrast to the heavier hydrogen halides, which boil between −85 °C (−120 °F) and −35 °C (−30 °F). [6] [7] [8] This hydrogen bonding between HF molecules gives rise to high viscosity in the liquid phase and lower than expected pressure in the gas phase.

    An example is sucrose, a dimer of fructose and glucose, which follows the same reaction equation as presented above. Amino acids can also form dimers, which are called dipeptides. An example is glycylglycine, consisting of two glycine molecules joined by a peptide bond. Other examples include aspartame and carnosine.

    Hydrogen fluoride (HF), like water, is a polar molecule, and due to its polarity it can dissolve many ionic compounds. At atmospheric pressure , its melting point is 189.15 K (−84.00 °C), and its boiling point is 292.69 K (19.54 °C); the difference between the two is a little more than 100 K. HF also makes hydrogen bonds with its neighbor ...

  6. Fluorine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluorine

    Hydrogen and fluorine combine to yield hydrogen fluoride, in which discrete molecules form clusters by hydrogen bonding, resembling water more than hydrogen chloride. [126] [127] [128] It boils at a much higher temperature than heavier hydrogen halides and unlike them is miscible with water. [129] Hydrogen fluoride readily hydrates on contact ...

  7. Ionic bonding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ionic_bonding

    The oppositely charged ions – typically a great many of them – are then attracted to each other to form solid sodium fluoride. Ionic bonding is a type of chemical bonding that involves the electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions, or between two atoms with sharply different electronegativities, [1] and is the primary ...

  8. Valence (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valence_(chemistry)

    However, chlorine can also have oxidation states from +1 to +7 and can form more than one bond by donating valence electrons. Hydrogen has only one valence electron, but it can form bonds with more than one atom. In the bifluoride ion ([HF 2] −), for example, it forms a three-center four-electron bond with two fluoride atoms: [F−H F − ↔ ...

  9. Chemical polarity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_polarity

    One common form of polar interaction is the hydrogen bond, which is also known as the H-bond. For example, water forms H-bonds and has a molar mass M = 18 and a boiling point of +100 °C, compared to nonpolar methane with M = 16 and a boiling point of –161 °C.
