They vary depending on the molecules under consideration. They are all electrostatic in nature deriving from the interaction of permanent or instantaneous dipoles. They are lumped together as Van der Waals forces but can be considered to be of 3 types:-
- Keesom forces permanent dipole dipole interactions
- Debye forces; permanent dipole interaction with induced dipole,
- London dispersion forces ; interaction between two instantaneous dipoles.

What intermolecular forces is the strongest?
hydrogen bonding
What type of intermolecular forces exist in a hydrocarbon?
In almost all hydrocarbons, the only type of intermolecular forces that exists is the London forces (Van der Waals forces).
What is the intermolecular forces of CH3F?
These are polar forces, intermolecular forces of attraction between molecules.
What is the intermolecular force of Ch2Br2?
Dipole forces and London forces are present as intermolecular forces in these molecules.
Which is a property of all gases?
they are malleable
What intermolecular forces is the strongest?
hydrogen bonding
What are forces between molecules in a solid called?
all such forces are intermolecular forces.
What type of intermolecular forces exist in a hydrocarbon?
In almost all hydrocarbons, the only type of intermolecular forces that exists is the London forces (Van der Waals forces).
Explain why oil does not dissolve in water.?
The main intermolecular forces between water molecules are hydrogen bonds which are pretty strong as far as intermolecular forces go. Between hydrocarbon chains (oil) the main intermolecular force are London force which are weaker. For two liquids to be miscible the intermolecular forces between them have to be similar in strength or they won't dissolve. Water and oil have different strengths of intermolecular bonds so don't mix.
How do you explain the solubility of compounds?
List all the intermolecular forces between solutes2) List all the forces between solvents3) List all the intermolecular forces between solvent and solute4) State the energy comparisons.
What is the intermolecular forces of CH3F?
These are polar forces, intermolecular forces of attraction between molecules.
What is the intermolecular force of Ch2Br2?
Dipole forces and London forces are present as intermolecular forces in these molecules.
Which is a property of all gases?
they are malleable
Which forces internal or intermolecular must be broken for methyl alcohol to evaporate?
These are intermolecular forces.
What interaction is not a type of intermolecular force?
Intramolecular forces are not intermolecular forces !
What are the intermolecular forces in ammonium chloride?
the intermolecular forces are hydrogen bonds
What can you say about the relative strength of the intermolecular forces in the two compounds?
The intermolecular forces in acetone are weaker.
