Whats the difference between dipole-dipole bonding and hydrogen bonding?
Dipole-Dipole bonding occurs in covalent bonds. It is an intermolecular force, meaning it occurs with other molecules. This happens when you have a polar bond, meaning that one side is more negative than the other. Hydrogen bond is also an intermolecular force, but it on the other hand happens ONLY when HYDROGEN bonds with FLUORINE, OXYGEN, or NITROGEN. That it! Nothing else, just those three elements. And H-bond is the strongest of all intermolecular forces.
