Boiling point indicates the strength of intermolecular interactions. Given the boiling points in parentheses, rank the following molecules in order from strongest to weakest intermolecular interaction: methane (CH, -164°C), formaldehyde (CH,O, -21°C), methanol (CH,OH, 65°C), and calcium chloride (CaCl,, 782°C). Also, indicate the type of interaction: ionic bonds, London dispersion forces, dipole-dipole interaction, and H-bonds.
