What type of intermolecular forces does methane CH4 have?

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.


Does CH4 have dipole forces?

no


What are CH4's intermolecular forces?

Dispersion force (Van der waals), also known as London Forces


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.


Is the boiling point higher for compounds with a high viscosity?

Viscosity is the thickness of the compound. The thicker the compound the higher the intermolecular forces. The higher the intermolecular forces the higher the boiling point is.


What are the intermolecular forces in beryllium fluoride?

Disperson forces only because it is not a polar compound.


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


What are types of intermolecular forces present in CH3CH2OCH2CH3?

It is a non polar compound. So it has London forces among molecules. They are a weak type of forces.


What are the intermolecular forces in NH2Cl?

Only Induced dipole forces, also called dispersion forces, or London forces. NH2Cl is a polar molecular compound. Therefore, the intermolecular forces also include dipole forces.


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 is the compound of CH4?

CH4 is methane, a gaseous compound at room temperature


Is CH4 a ionic or covalent compound?

CH4 (methane) is a covalent compound.
