Which statement about a hydrogen bond is not correct?

Answers:

"Hydrogen bonds involve hydrogen bonded to carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, or fluorine."

"In a hydrogen bond, the hydrogen atom on one molecule is attracted to unpaired electrons associated with nitrogen, oxygen, or fluorine on another molecule."

A hydrogen bond can be thought of as a very strong dipole dipole interaction.

The presence of hydrogen bonds leads to anomalously high boiling points for liquids.

Hydrogen bonds stabilize the double helix structure of DNA.
