Questions and Answers

What are intermolecular forces?

  • Forces that occur when non-polar molecules are transformed into induced dipoles due to the presence of a polar molecule nearby.
  • Attractive forces between ions and polar molecules.
  • Attractive and repulsive forces between molecules of a substance (correct)
  • Forces that arise due to the movement of electrons.
  • What is responsible for the physical characteristics of a substance?

  • Dispersion forces
  • Dipole-induced dipole interactions
  • Ion-dipole interactions
  • Intermolecular forces (correct)
  • What is the relationship between boiling point and the strength of intermolecular forces?

  • Boiling point is only related to the type of substance
  • Boiling point is proportional to the strength of intermolecular forces. (correct)
  • Boiling point is inversely proportional to the strength of intermolecular forces.
  • Boiling point is not related to the strength of intermolecular forces.

    Study Notes

    • Intermolecular forces are attractive and repulsive forces between molecules of a substance.
    • They are responsible for the physical characteristics of a substance and affect its condensed states.
    • Boiling point is proportional to the strength of intermolecular forces.
    • Dipole-dipole interactions are attractive forces among polar molecules.
    • Ion-dipole interactions arise between ions and polar molecules.
    • Ion-induced dipole interactions occur when a non-polar molecule is polarized by an ion placed near it.
    • Dipole-induced dipole interactions occur when non-polar molecules are transformed into induced dipoles due to the presence of a polar molecule nearby.
    • Dispersion forces or London forces are the weakest force and arise due to the movement of electrons.
    • The boiling point of a substance can be used to compare the strengths of intermolecular forces.
    • BYJU'S - The Learning App provides further information on intermolecular forces.
