no you can tell by their boiling points

because water has stronger hydrogen bonding (intermolecular forces) it has a higher heat capacity and boiling point at 100 degrees Celsius while isopropyl has a lower boiling point

What is the physical state of matter if it has least intermolecular force and greater intermolecular force?

The physical state of matter with the least intermolecular force is a gas, where particles are far apart and move freely. Conversely, the state with the greatest intermolecular force is a solid, where particles are closely packed in a fixed arrangement. Liquids fall in between, with moderate intermolecular forces allowing for both some degree of particle movement and a defined shape.


Why alcohol exist in a liquid state while smaller hydrocarbon tend to be gases?

Precisely because of the size of the molecules. Larger molecules have a greater tendency to stick together, because there are more places where they can interact, and thus, a greater total force.


Which has a higher boiling point CO2 or SiO2?

intermolecular force between the sio2 molecule is greater than that of the co2 molecule....the co2 molecule is in it gaseous state while that of the sio2 is crystalline making the intermolecular force stronger than that of the co2 molecule.

This is an intermolecular force.


What happens when you mix cornstarch and isopropyl?

When you mix cornstarch and isopropyl alcohol, you create a thick, viscous mixture that can behave like a non-Newtonian fluid. This means that its viscosity changes under stress; it can become more solid when force is applied and more liquid when at rest. This property makes the mixture useful for various applications, including art projects and demonstrations of fluid dynamics. However, the isopropyl alcohol will evaporate over time, altering the consistency of the mixture.


Is high vapor boiling point a week intermolecular force?

Boiling point is a property not a force; but a high boiling point indicate a strong intermolecular force.


What is the source of intermolecular force?

Gravity!


Which kind of force is a dipole -dipole force?

Intermolecular attraction


What is the intermolecular force found in CH5OH?

If you mean CH3OH, then the strongest intermolecular force is hydrogen bonding as this is an alcohol containing and OH group. There are other other forcs such a sLondon dispersion forces but these are weaker as CH3OH doesn't have many electrons.


What is the intermolecular force of Ar?

The intermolecular force in Ar (argon) is London dispersion forces, which are the weakest type of intermolecular force. This force is caused by temporary fluctuations in electron distribution around the atom, leading to temporary dipoles.


What interaction is not a type of intermolecular force?

Intramolecular forces are not intermolecular forces !
