Intermolecular Force
2 types
Dipole-dipole interaction
surface area
Extension area for contact with other molecules, and a large dipole can
be induced
e.g. Boiling point :
n-pentane (C5H12)
36oC
2,2-dimethylpropane (C5H12)
7
9oC
Hydrogen Bonding
These 3 hydrogen-containing
compounds (NH3, H2O and HF)
form intermolecular hydrogen
bonds, which are stronger than
van der Waals force
