Name the strongest type of attractive force between each of these pairs of molecules. (Induced dipole – induced dipole force, permanent dipole-dipole force, hydrogen bond) a) CH3Cl and CH3Br b) CH3NH2 and CH3OH c) CH3CH2CH2CH2CH3 and CH3CH2CH2CH2CH3 d) CH3COCH3 and CH3COCH2CH3 e) CH3Br and CH3NH2
Understand the Problem
The question asks to identify the strongest type of attractive force between given pairs of molecules, specifying types of intermolecular forces such as induced dipole-induced dipole, permanent dipole-dipole, and hydrogen bonds.
Answer
a) Permanent dipole-dipole b) Hydrogen bond c) Induced dipole-induced dipole d) Permanent dipole-dipole e) Hydrogen bond
The strongest attractive forces are: a) Permanent dipole-dipole force b) Hydrogen bond c) Induced dipole-induced dipole force d) Permanent dipole-dipole force e) Hydrogen bond
Answer for screen readers
The strongest attractive forces are: a) Permanent dipole-dipole force b) Hydrogen bond c) Induced dipole-induced dipole force d) Permanent dipole-dipole force e) Hydrogen bond
More Information
Hydrogen bonds occur when hydrogen is bonded to highly electronegative atoms like nitrogen or oxygen. Dipole-dipole interactions happen between polar molecules, while induced dipole interactions occur when nonpolar molecules are temporarily polarized.
Tips
A common mistake is misidentifying hydrogen bonds; they only occur with N, O, or F. Another is forgetting that nonpolar molecules mainly interact via dispersion forces.
