Interpretation: Difference between inter-molecular and intra-molecular forces is to be given.
Concept introduction: Both inter-molecular and intra-molecular forces are somehow related to the molecules of a compound. Inter-molecular forces exist outside the molecules whereas intra-molecular forces exist inside the molecules.
Answer to Problem 1RQ
Inter-molecular forces exist outside the molecules whereas intra-molecular forces exist inside the molecules.
Explanation of Solution
Intra-molecular forces are
Inter-molecular forces are a kind of binding forces that bind the molecules together. The strength of these forces affects the physical state of the compound in which they are present. They are of various types namely Hydrogen bond, dipole-dipole bond, ion-induced dipole forces, ion-dipole forces and London dispersion forces.
Inter-molecular forces exist outside the molecules whereas intra-molecular forces exist inside the molecules.
