What is the reason for ch3br or ch3f having a higher boiling point compared to other compounds?

The reason ch3br or ch3f have higher boiling points compared to other compounds is because they have stronger intermolecular forces due to the presence of hydrogen bonding.


What intermolecular force is CH3F?

The prominent intermolecular force for this compound would be dipole dipole attraction forces since there is a polar C-F bond in each molecule. As there is many C-H bonds present, there would be London forces among those groups.


Why does methane have a higher boiling point than Fluromethane?

Metahne does not have a higher boiling point than methane. Fluoromethane, CH3F, has a boiling point of 195K, -78.2C, methane, CH4, has a boiling point of 109K approx -164 C. I make that fluoromethane has a higher temeprature boiling point than methane. This is what you would expect, London dispersion forces will be greater in CH3F as it has more electrons than CH4. CH3F is polar and there will be dipole dipole interactions which will not be present in CH4.


What interaction is not a type of intermolecular force?

Intramolecular forces are not intermolecular forces !


What is the intermolecular ammonia and ammonia?

The intermolecular forces are hydrogen bonding.


How do thermal and intermolecular forces behave with each other?

When there is more thermal energy, then there are less intermolecular forces.


What can you say about the relative strength of the intermolecular forces in the two compounds?

The relative strength of intermolecular forces depends on the types of molecules involved. Compounds with hydrogen bonding, such as water, tend to have stronger intermolecular forces compared to those with only London dispersion forces, like diethyl ether. This results in higher boiling points for compounds with stronger intermolecular forces.


What intermolecular forces are present in cl2?

London forces are present in chlorine molecules.


What is the relationship between the strength of the intermolecular forces and boiling point?

The strength of intermolecular forces is directly related to the boiling point of a substance. Substances with stronger intermolecular forces require more energy to break those forces, leading to a higher boiling point. Conversely, substances with weaker intermolecular forces have lower boiling points.


Do strong intermolecular forces have positive numbers?

No, strong intermolecular forces typically have negative values when expressed numerically in terms of energy or potential energy. The more negative the value, the stronger the intermolecular forces.


What are the intermolecular forces of attraction within pentane?

The intermolecular forces in pentane are London dispersion forces. These forces result from the temporary uneven distribution of electrons in the molecule, leading to temporary dipoles. Due to the nonpolar nature of pentane, London dispersion forces are the predominant intermolecular forces present.
