Chapter 13, Problem 4PE

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The increasing order of ${\text{CO}}_{\text{2}}$, ${\text{SO}}_{\text{2}}$ and ${\text{CS}}_{\text{2}}$ molecules in terms of London dispersion forces have to be arranged.

Concept Introduction:

Molecules with no dipole moments are bonded through some forces. Therefore, the forces that exist between the nonpolar molecules that include noble gases are called London dispersion forces. These forces are weak and thus can break easily.
