If you draw out the Lewis structure of SiCl4 you will find that the molecule is of
the tetrahedral shape with zero lone pairs. ( I recommend going over your
electron group arrangements)
meaning that the molecule is NON-POLAR.
If a molecule is non-polar then the only IF force present opposing vaporization
would be dispersion. When you have a polar molecule there will be dipole-
dipole IF's present also.
Hope this helps

Which physical properties is not affected by an increase in intermolecular forces?
The correct answers are: Capillary attraction; Melting point; and Heat of vaporization. Stronger intermolecular forces increase capillary attraction, melting point, and the heat of vaporization. They have no bearing on conductivity and hardness.A.HardnessB.ConductivityC.Capillary attractionD.Melting pointE.Heat of vaporization
What causes chloroform to have the lowest heat of vaporization?
Smallest intermolecular forces of attraction
What indicates the presence of weak intermolecular forces in a liquid?
The characteristic that indicates the presence of weak intermolecular forces in a liquid is a low heat of vaporization. Another characteristic that indicates the presence of weak intermolecular forces in a liquid is a high vapor pressure.
What probably causes chloroform to have the lowest heat of vaporization?
Smallest intermolecular forces of attraction
What is Kb for CH3NH2(aq) H2O(l) CH3NH3 (aq) OH-(aq)?
Kb = [CH3NH3 +] [OH-] / [CH3NH2]
Which has a higher boiling point CH3CH3 or CH3NH2?
CH3NH2 has the higher boiling point as it has a hydrogen bond between the molecule which is a stronger intermolecular attractive force, whereas CH3CH3 only has covalent bonds which are weaker intermolecular attractive forces.

What are the intermolecular forces of CH3NH2?
I assume you mean CH3NH2, methylamine. This has hydrogen bonding between molecules.
Is CH3NH2 inorganic or organic?
CH3NH2 is methyl amine, and it is ORGANIC.
Process of vaporization require an input of energy?
Yes, the process of vaporization does require an input of energy. The energy is required to break the intermolecular forces of a given substance. The intermolecular forces is usually very strong.
What are forces that oppose motion?
Friction

Is CH3NH2 polar or not?
no
What is Kb for CH3NH2(aq) H2O(l) CH3NH3 (aq) OH-(aq)?
Kb = [CH3NH3 +] [OH-] / [CH3NH2]
Does CH3NH2 have a dipole moment?
NH3 is not symmetrical.So it has a dipole moment
