Hi all,

I have what might be a simple chem question:

One particular question gave the molecular structure of H3BO3, and asked how many hydrogen bonds is it capable of forming.

I thought it should have been 3 but apparently it is capable of forming 9 possible hydrogen bonds. How is this possible?
