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 attractive force would cause the highest boiling point?

These are ionic bonds.


Does the boiling point of a liquid decreases increases or stay the same if the intermolecular force increases?

Generally, the boiling point of a liquid increases if the intermolecular force, i.e. pressure, increases.


Which inter molecular force would cause the highest melting point?

Hydrogen bonding, which is the strongest of the intermolecular forces.


What intermolecular force would affect boiling point the most?

van der waals force


What are the charaistics of an intermolecular force?

Boiling point, viscosity, heat of sublimation,density


Results from a change at the boiling point?

A change in boiling point typically indicates a change in the intermolecular forces of a substance. For example, adding a solute to a solvent will usually increase the boiling point due to the formation of new intermolecular interactions. Conversely, a decrease in boiling point may signal a weaker intermolecular force, as seen in solutions or mixtures.


Do stronger intermolecular forces result in higher or lower boiling points?

Stronger intermolecular forces result in higher boiling points because they require more energy to overcome and separate the molecules within a substance. Examples of strong intermolecular forces include hydrogen bonding, dipole-dipole interactions, and ion-ion interactions.


Which intermolecular force would affect the boiling point the least?

Van der Waals forces


Does water expand when heated and why?

Yes... When water is heated, the intermolecular force of attraction between water atoms become weak and they start losing the intermolecular force of attraction... at temperature known as boiling point of water this intermolecular force become so weak that water lose its state and converts into gasious state... but this expansion is not considerable... :)


How do intermolecular forces affect the boiling point of liquid?

the stronger the intermolecular force, the more energy is required to boil the liquid ...


At sea level water boils at 100 degrees Celsius while methane boils at negative 161 degrees Celsius Which has a stronger attraction between particles?

Water has a stronger attraction between its particles compared to methane. This is evident in the higher boiling point of water, as the stronger intermolecular forces require more energy to break the bonds between water molecules. Methane, being a lighter molecule, has weaker intermolecular forces which results in a lower boiling point.
