Intermolecular forces are any forces exerted on neighboring molecules of a given compound. The forces are not the actual chemical bonds present in the substance, but rather the substances own attractiveness to its own molecules. These intermolecular forces play a crucial role in determining a compounds various physical properties such as but not limited to :solubility, melting point, boiling point, density.

Which matter has the minimum inter molecular force?
Intermolecular forces are weak in gases.
A force that holds atoms together to form a compound?
Inter molecular force
Intermolecular force of AsH3?
They have london forces between them. It is the weakest type of inter molecular force.
Why are some solids more dense than other solids?
The density of material depends upon the inter molecular force of attraction between the molecules... some solid molecules have more inter molecular force hence they are denser than other solids...
Is Dipole-dipole forces a intramolecule force?
No. They are inter molecular forces acting between two different molecules.
What is the inter molecular force in Acetone?
There are both London Dispersion forces and Dipole-Dipole forces within Acetone.
Which inter molecular force would cause the highest melting point?
Hydrogen bonding, which is the strongest of the intermolecular forces.
Which inter molecular force would effect the boiling point the least?
Van der Waals forces APEX
What inter molecular force is involved in ionic bond?
Ionic bond is only interatomic and based on electrostatic attraction.
What kind of inter molecular force is found in ethane?
Van der Waals, sometimes known as 'London Forces'.
What are inter particle forces of attraction?
Inter-particle force, also known intermolecular force, are forces of attraction and repulsion which act between neighboring particles. compared to intramolecular forces, they are a weak force.
How can you show that gas have least inter molecular force of attraction?
When gas is released in a container the gas molecules spread all over the container and show that they have least force of attraction.
