Question

Which molecule will undergo only london dispersion forces when interacting with other molecules of the same kind?.

Answer 1

Butane, C₄H₁₀ will undergo only London dispersion forces when interacting with other molecules of the same kind.

London dispersion force:

• The weakest intermolecular force is called the London dispersion force.
• When the electrons in two nearby atoms occupy positions that cause the atoms to temporarily form dipoles, the resulting transient attractive attraction is known as the London dispersion force.
• There are instances when this force is referred to as an induced dipole-induced dipole attraction.

     Butane molecules only exhibit London dispersion forces because they are non-polar and have a symmetrical distribution of electron density.

Butane:

• It is a covalent non-polar molecule. Every C-C and C-H bond is non-polar. This is because there is little or no electronegativity difference between C and C in C-C bonds and none between C and H in C-H bonds.
