Concept explainers
Interpretation: Among below molecules, molecules that are capable of hydrogen bonding to them should be determined.
Concept introduction: Intermolecular forces are types of forces that are responsible to hold atoms together in molecule. There are various types of intermolecular forces as follows:
1. Hydrogen bonding:
As is evident from its name, these types of forces exist if hydrogen is present. Such forces are present when hydrogen atom bonds with highly electronegative elements like
2. Ion-dipole forces:
This force exists between ion and molecules with dipole moment in them. Attraction exists between ion and oppositely charged end of dipole.
3. Ion-induced dipole forces:
When an ion approaches non-polar molecule, it induces temporary dipole in it. Ion gets attracted towards oppositely charged part of dipole induced in molecule.
4. Dispersion forces:
These forces are also known as induced dipole-induced dipole or van der Waals forces. Such forces are present between various atoms and molecules. These are observed generally in non-polar molecules, halogens, and noble gases.

Why would this be? Choose the best and most complete answer. The bottom isomer has less electrons so it will have weaker dispersion forces leading to a lower surface tension. O The bottom isomer is compact. The bottom isomer has a smaller surface area to make dispersion forces leading to a lower surface tension. The bottom isomer has a smaller surface area to make hydrogen bonding forces so it has a lower surface tension.arrow_forward
