Chapter 4, Problem 4.80E

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The interparticle forces that are unlikely to be the predominant ones in the lattice of sucrose are to be stated.

Concept introduction:

The forces which initiates the interaction between the atoms of a molecule is known as the intermolecular forces. The intermolecular forces are of two types; forces of attraction and forces of repulsion. The name of the intermolecular forces are, ion-dipole forces of attraction, van der Waal’s forces, hydrogen bonding, dispersion forces and others.

The partial electrostatic forces of attraction that exists between hydrogen atom and any bonded electronegative atom like oxygen atom is known as hydrogen bonding.
