Vitamin A, primarily in the form of retinol, exhibits various intermolecular forces, including van der Waals forces (London dispersion forces) and dipole-dipole interactions due to its polar functional groups. The presence of the hydroxyl group (-OH) in retinol allows for hydrogen bonding, which can enhance its solubility in polar solvents. Overall, these intermolecular forces play a significant role in the physical properties and biological functions of vitamin A.
What else can I help you with?
Which matter has the minimum inter molecular force?
Intermolecular forces are weak in gases.
Which inter molecular force would cause the highest melting point?
Hydrogen bonding, which is the strongest of the intermolecular forces.
How can you show that gas have least inter molecular force of attraction?
When gas is released in a container the gas molecules spread all over the container and show that they have least force of attraction.
Which substance has a stronger inter molecular force stearic acid or melting temp of water?
Stearic acid since it is nonpolar and H2O is polar.
The molecular mass of Vitamin C?
The molecular mass of vitamin C (ascorbic acid) is 176,1241 and the chemical formula is C6H8O6.
Which matter has the minimum inter molecular force?
Intermolecular forces are weak in gases.
Is Dipole-dipole forces a intramolecule force?
No. They are inter molecular forces acting between two different molecules.
Which inter molecular force would effect the boiling point the least?
Van der Waals forces APEX
What inter molecular force is involved in ionic bond?
Ionic bond is only interatomic and based on electrostatic attraction.
Which inter molecular force would cause the highest melting point?
Hydrogen bonding, which is the strongest of the intermolecular forces.
Is vitamin C a molecular compound?
Yes. Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) is a molecular compound.
How can you show that gas have least inter molecular force of attraction?
When gas is released in a container the gas molecules spread all over the container and show that they have least force of attraction.
Which substance has a stronger inter molecular force stearic acid or melting temp of water?
Stearic acid since it is nonpolar and H2O is polar.
Sound waves are the result of what in the air or other media?
Inter-atomic or inter-molecular collisions.
The molecular mass of Vitamin C?
The molecular mass of vitamin C (ascorbic acid) is 176,1241 and the chemical formula is C6H8O6.
How does strength of inter molecular forces affect evaporation point?
as inter molecular forces increase the evaporation point also increases as more heat is required to break the bonds
Do inter-molecular forces occur as a result of being in the liquid state or does a liquid state exist because of inter-molecular forces?
The liquid state is caused by intermolecular forces.
