Question

In CH2CF2 are the hydrogens abundant enough for them to link together or is just the fact that there are hydrogen atoms enough to assume that there can be hydrogen bonding? In CH2CF2 are the hydrogens abundant enough for them to link together or is just the fact that there are hydrogen atoms enough to assume that there can be hydrogen bonding? In CH2CF2 are the hydrogens abundant enough for them to link together or is just the fact that there are hydrogen atoms enough to assume that there can be hydrogen bonding?

Explanation / Answer

In CH2CF2 there is no hydrogen bonding because hydrogens are directly linked to carbons not with Flourine

( When Hydrogen atom is directly linked to highly electronegative atom such as N, O or F, forms hydrogen bonding with near by highly electronegative atom)
