Question
Hypofluorous acid (HOF) is the simplest possible compound that allows comparison between fluorine and oxygen in their abilities to form hydrogen bonds. Although F attracts electrons more strongly than O, solid HOF
unexpectedly contains no H ... F hydrogen bonds! Draw a proposed structure for chains of HOF molecules in the crystalline state. The bond angle in HOF is 101 degrees.
