Since magnesium chloride (MgCl2) isn't a molecule, it doesn't have intermolecular forces. MgCl2 is a formula unit (not a molecule), and forces holding the lattice together are coulombic forces of + and - charges attracting each other.

Dipole-dipole Interactions as the Cl atom that is combined to the methane has a dipole charge that isn't canceled out by the other atoms.

It is not hydrogen because no hydrogen atoms are combined to a Oxygen, Nitrogen or Fluorine atom.

Its Ionic bonded...

And has Van Der Waals forces present. That's it i think...

Why does magnesium chloride have a much higher melting point than water?

magnesium chloride is a ionic structure there for forming a giant ionic lattice, each atom is held by a ionic bond. H2O is a simple molecular structure there for the molecules are held by intermolecular forces which are easily overcome, however the molecules aren't broken up it is only the structure. :)= Sav


What are the prominent intermolecular forces of Aluminum Chloride?

Alumininium chloride is only molecular in the melt and vapour where a chlorine bridged dimer is present along with a monomer ate very high temperature. The intermolecular forces are londn dispersion forces. In the solid it adopts an unusual layer structure containing 6 coordinate aluminium- there are no molecules present .


Why aluminium chloride sublime at 180 degree celsius?

The sublimation of a molecule depends on the intermolecular forces. Since Aluminium Chloride exists as a dimer, Al2Cl6. It has weak intermolecular forces (also, Vander Waal Forces) due to which it sublimes at a relatively low temperature of 180 degree Celsius.
