Are hydrogen bonds formed between all molecules?

1.) No because hydrogen can only form these bonds with oxygen atoms.

2.) No because hydrogen can only form these bonds with highly electronegative atoms.

3.) Yes because hydrogen can easily form bonds with atoms that have a neutral charge.

4.) Yes because hydrogen can form these bonds with weakly electronegative atoms.

The correct answer would be the first option. Hydrogen bonds do not form in all molecules because hydrogen can only form these bonds with highly electronegative atoms. It is a weak type of force that happens when a hydrogen atom is bonded to an atom which has a high electronegativity.
