Hi ChemAxon,
The donorCount chemical terms function returns 1 for a primary amide, while other calculators return two. It seems that both hydrogens on the nitrogen could participate in H-bonds.
Thanks,

Ah, I see: you are counting the heavy atoms that act as donors, not the number of H-bonds that can be formed.

Hi,
Yes. The distribution diagram of an acetamide molecule calculated with Marvin given below.
The average donor hydrogen atom count "Don" and the average acceptor lone pair count "Acc" plotted as function of the pH on the attached figure. The number of the donor site count is 2 "H" atoms. And there are 2 acceptors lone pair electron on the keto group.
