Hydrogen atoms are close together. The electron from each atom feels the attraction from the proton in the nucleus of the other atom. This attraction pulls the atoms together and the electrons are ...

Other hydrogen bonds may temporarily impede proper folding. For example, a protein may get hung up in a repeating loop that involves one or more hydrogen bonds forming, breaking and forming again ...

Hydrogen bonds result when hydrogen and oxygen atoms ... the electronic and nuclear quantum effects of H-bond networks, for example by changing the pH of water through the addition of hydroxide ...

Recent research has focused on understanding the dynamics of ethylene glycol in aqueous solutions, particularly how it interacts with water molecules through hydrogen bonding. This area of study ...

Each atom then has a complete outer shell of electrons. The slideshow shows how a covalent bond forms between a hydrogen atom and a chlorine atom, making hydrogen chloride. A simple molecule ...

The design and synthesis of supramolecular systems invokes interactions beyond the covalent bond, using, for example, hydrogen bonding, metal coordination and π interactions to bring discrete ...
