What can you say about the relative strength of the intermolecular forces in the two compounds?
The intermolecular forces in acetone are weaker.
How do intermolecular forces compare to covalent and ionic bonds in terms of strength?
Ionic bonds create stronger intermolecular attraction than covalent bonds do; that is why rocks are harder than plastic.
Is the boiling point higher for compounds with a high viscosity?
Viscosity is the thickness of the compound. The thicker the compound the higher the intermolecular forces. The higher the intermolecular forces the higher the boiling point is.
What is the relationship between the strength of the intermolecular forces and boiling point?
Boiling can only occur when the kinetic energy of heat overcomes the intermolecular forces holding a liquid together, so the greater the intermolecular forces, the higher the boiling point.
What does a high melting point temperature indicate about a substance?
Strong Intermolecular Forces attract the molecules

What are the intermolecular forces in beryllium fluoride?
Disperson forces only because it is not a polar compound.
Why alcohol evoporates?
Alcohols have intermolecular forces which are with relatively lower strength.
What is the relationship between the strength of the intermolecular forces and boiling point?
Boiling can only occur when the kinetic energy of heat overcomes the intermolecular forces holding a liquid together, so the greater the intermolecular forces, the higher the boiling point.
What experimental property directyl correlates with the strength of the intermolecular forces?
Boiling point
What experimental property directly correlates with the strength of the intermolecular forces?
boiling point
Are intermolecular forces of attraction strong?
the strength depends on the molecule in question, but they are strong
What does a high melting point temperature indicate about a substance?
Strong Intermolecular Forces attract the molecules
What does a high boiling temperature indicate about a substances?
intermolecular forces are hard to overcome...apex
What is a type of a intermolecular force?
London forces, dipole attractions and hydrogen bonding are some of the examples for intermolecular attractions in the order of increasing strength.
