H-Bond Deep Dive - Homework Problem Set

Interactive Course Summary

Hydrogen Bonding and Structural Bio-Macromolecules — Hydrogen bonding is a highly concentrated, directional intermolecular dipole-dipole attraction occurring between a hydrogen atom covalently bound to a highly electronegative atom ($\text{N, O, F}$) and a nearby electronegative lone pair. This force governs the anomalous thermodynamic properties of water and the thermodynamic stability of DNA double-helix base-pairing.
