Question

Draw a picture of the hydrogen bonding in methanol.

Short answer

The hydrogen bond is the link established between a strongly electronegative atom that is oxygen, fluorine, and nitrogen and the hydrogen atom.

A dotted line represents a hydrogen bond (-----).

Methanol has the chemical formula CH₃OH .
