Question
Chapter 8, Problem 8.16A
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The given substances needs to be arranged in order of their increasing boiling points.
Concept introduction:
The intermolecular forces can be defined as the forces which act as a medium in the interaction present between the molecules. It includes forces of repulsions and attraction that acts between the molecules and other neighboring species as well. The boiling point of a given substance can be defined as the temperature at which the vapor pressure of the liquid becomes equal to the pressure that surrounds the liquid and the liquid gets transformed to a vapor.
