In a single molecule of CH4 you would have intramolecular forces that are covalent bonds. The intermolecular forces that exist between molecules of CH4 are called dispersion forces. These forces are the only intermolecular forces that occur between non-polar molecules.

What is the predominant intermolecular force of methane ammonia nitrogen triflouride?
Correct answers from Mastering Chemistry: NH3 - hydrogen bonding CH4 - Dispersion forces NF3 - dipole-dipole
What is the chemical formula for methane molecule?
Molecular formula: CH4 Structural formula: . H H C H . H CH4 (1 carbon and 4 hydrogen) it is NOT ch4 it is CH4; 4 being a subscript indicating 4 hydrogen atoms bonded into a single carbon atom
What is the name of the compound CH4OH?
Methane is the name of ch4.
Number of carbon atoms in methane?
Methane (CH4) is composed of one atom of carbon and four atoms of hydrogen, a total of five.
What are the fractions of each type of atom in methane?
The molecular formula of methane is CH4. Therefore, the number of atoms per molecule is 5, the fraction of the atoms that are carbon is 1/5 and the fraction of the atoms that are hydrogen is 4/5.
Does CH4 have dipole forces?
no
What is the intermolecular forces in compound ch4?
Methane (CH4) is a non-polar molecule. It has Van Der Waals forces (also known as London Dispersal forces) acting at the intramolecular level
What is the strongest type of intermolecular force in CH4?
CHF3 is a polar molecule. The fluorine atoms are electronegative and draw electrons towards their end of the molecule, leaving the hydrogen with a slight positive charge on it. So dipole-dipole forces will act between the molecules. The molecules will also exert dispersion forces on each other, but these are much weaker than the dipole-dipole forces.
What type of bonding formed in CH4 molecules?
Methane is non polar.So dispersion forces are formed.
Why do ammonia has higher melting and boiling point than methane?
Ammonia (NH3) has hydrogen bonding intermolecular forces, whereas methane (CH4) does not. In addition, ammonia is polar, and so also has dipole-dipole forces and methane does not. Thus, it takes more energy (higher temperature) to boil and melt ammonia than it does methane.
What is the predominant intermolecular force of methane ammonia nitrogen triflouride?
Correct answers from Mastering Chemistry: NH3 - hydrogen bonding CH4 - Dispersion forces NF3 - dipole-dipole
Is CH3CH2CH3 London dispersion force?
yes, CH4 has London dispersion forces because it is a non-polar molecule and non-polar molecules have London dispersion forces present in them. there are no other forces present in CH4.
What type of bonding holds a methane molecule together?
Covalent bonds are the intramolecular forces that hold the hydrogens to the carbon in methane, CH4. The intermolecular forces holding several methane molecules together are London dispersion forces (van der Waals forces).
What is the chemical formule for methane gas?
Methane is CH4
What are CH4's intermolecular forces?
Dispersion force (Van der waals), also known as London Forces
What type of chemical bond does CH4 have?
Methane has covalent bonds.
Put the following in order from lowest melting point to the highest- na2o he ch4 nh3 h2s?
Look at intermolecular forces and judge from there
