it's just demonstrating the hydrogen bonds that form between water and dipoles on polar molecules???? e.g. 1-fluoropropane has a dipole at the fluorine
also like any alcohol, as in the second example - there is a H bond between the OH group and water, but also a dipole dipole between the CH2 because it's got a polar area due to the electronegative OH

i think my brain is blocking me from even trying to understand it why is the diagram so complicated why is it easier explained in words
It's showing both hydrogen bonding and dipole-dipole interactions.
For a compound like fluoromethane, CH3F, the lone pairs on the fluorine atom can accept hydrogen bonds from a hydrogen bond donor (like an H on a water molecule). The C-F bond is also polar, with the F atom bearing a slight negative charge and the C atom a slight positive charge. So, a dipole-dipole interaction will form between the C of fluoromethane and an O of water.
