Hydrogen bond

Electromagnetic attractive interaction of a polar hydrogen atom in a molecule and an electronegative atom from another molecule. Hydrogen bonds are electrostatic and weak in nature, compared to other bonds. This type of bond takes place in both inorganic molecules (e.g. water) and organic molecules (e.g. DNA and proteins).
