List down the types of intermolecular forces that exist between molecules (or basic units) in the species given below: (a) benzene (C6H6), (b) CH3Cl, (c) PF3, (d) NaCl, (e) CS2

Respuesta :

(a) benzene (C6H6) - nonpolar molecules . Only dispersion forces are present.

(b) CH3Cl -  Chloroform ; polar molecules. Both dispersion and dipole-dipole forces are present.

(c) PF3 -  Phosphorus triflouride ; has polar bonds but has nonpolar molecule due to its symmetrical structure. Only dispersion forces are present.

(d) NaCl - 
Sodium chloride ; ionic compound. Both ion-ion and dispersion forces are present.

(e) CS2 - 
Carbon disulfide ; nonpolar molecules. Only dispersion forces are present.
