Final answer:
HF is expected to generate the strongest hydrogen bonding due to fluorine being the most electronegative atom when compared with iodine, chlorine, and bromine.
Step-by-step explanation:
Among the given choices HF (hydrofluoric acid) is expected to generate the strongest hydrogen bonding. Hydrogen bonding typically occurs when there is a highly polar bond involving hydrogen and a highly electronegative atom such as fluorine, oxygen, or nitrogen. In this case, since fluorine is the most electronegative atom compared to iodine (I), chlorine (Cl), and bromine (Br), HF will have the strongest hydrogen bonds. Such bond strength is also inversely related to the acid strength in a series of binary acids where the more polarized and weaker the H-A bond, the stronger the acid. However, since the question specifically asks about the strength of hydrogen bonding and not acid strength, HF will have the strongest hydrogen bonds.
