In the following pair of molecules, which would you expect to have a higher boiling point and why? CH3CI or Cl2 O CH3CI, because it is has more atoms and therefore has stronger London dispersion forces. O C2, because it is nonpolar and has stronger London dispersion forces. O CH3CI, because it has dipole-dipole forces. O Cl2 , because it is more massive and has stronger London dispersion forces.
