Describing how Hydrogen Bonding is done.

This hydrogen bonding is way different from other uses from the word "bond", since it is a force of attraction between a hydrogen atom in one molecule and a small atom of high electronegativity in another molecule. This means that it is an intermolecular force, not an intramolecular force as in the common use of the word "bond. When hydrogen atoms are joined in a polar covalent bond with a small atom of high electronegativity …showed first 75 words of 232 total…

The opening of DNA is a breaking of hydrogen bonds which help hold the two strands of the double helix together. This is how hydrogen bonding is very important to us. For attraction to create a hydrogen bond the hydrogen must become extremely positive and the other aom must become negative to combine a bond, "hydrogen bond".
