Which of the following would be expected to form hydrogen bonds
with water?

Choose all that apply.

acetone CH3COCH3.gif
propanamide C2H5CONH2.gif
pentane C5H12.gif
ethylamine C2H5NH2.gif

None of the Above

Answer

To form an hydrogen bond we need hydrogen bonded to an oxygen,
nitrogen, fluor, etc atom.

The propanamide will form an hydrogen bond with water because
there is a N-H bond, also the C=O bonds can form hydrogen bonds
with water. So, the ethylamine and
the acetone will form hydrogen bonds too.
