What intermolecular forces are present in C2H5Cl?

Answer and Explanation:

• The intermolecular forces present in ethyl chloride are dipole-dipole interactions.
• The intermolecular forces present in chlorine are London dispersion forces.

Which has a higher boiling point Cl2 or C2H5Cl?

Explain. /2 Both Cl2 and C2H5Cl have 34 electrons, but C2H5Cl is polar and Cl2 is nonpolar. gives it a higher boiling point.

What intermolecular forces are present in polystyrene?

Polystyrene has a very high molecular weight with its polymer chains interacting through weak, intermolecular forces, or Van Der Waals forces, even though each hydrocarbon chain has high intramolecular strength.

What type of intermolecular force is CH3CH2OH?

dispersion forces
Only dispersion forces are present and these are largest in the longer chain alkane as it has more electrons (more bonds). Both molecules possess dipole moments but CH3CH2OH contains hydrogen bonded to an electronegative element so H-bonding is possible.

Does C8H18 have dipole-dipole forces?

Both octane ( C8H18 ) and butane ( C4H10 ) are non-polar hydrocarbons; what I mean by this is that the bonds between carbon and hydrogen are non-polar due to an insignificant electronegativity difference, and thus the entire molecule has no dipole moment.

Why does ch3i have a higher boiling point than CH3F?

The one with the highest molecular weight has more electrons which creates more temporary bonds with other molecules. The more the bonds the more the energy needed to break them, hence higher boiling point.

Why does ethanol have a higher boiling point than Ethanethiol?

Note: However, ethanol molecules have a much more powerful intermolecular force available to them, which is hydrogen bonding. So, clearly, ethanol molecules have a higher boiling point or whatnot than ethanethiol.

Does CH3F have hydrogen bonding?

It is known that CH3F forms a hydrogen bond with H2O in the gas phase but does not dissolve in bulk water. This paper examines CH3F surrounded by one to six water molecules. For systems of similar topologies, CH3F formed hydrogen bonds of nearly the same strength as water.

Is polystyrene a covalent?

Polystyrene is consist of covalent bonds, sodium chloride is consist of ionic bonds. The ionic bond strenght is stronger than covalent bond because ionic bonds result from the mutual attraction between oppositely charged ions.
