From the force of attraction between particles, London dispersion forces are the weakest and covalent are the strongest. All the covalent bonds have approximately the same energy. London dispersion forces arise because of the attraction of temporary induced dipoles.

Answer to Problem 5.61P
The given statement is false.
Explanation of Solution
From the force of attraction between particles, London dispersion forces are the weakest and covalent are the strongest as the ion-ion attractive forces are the strongest because they require the maximum amount of energy to break. Hence, this statement is false.

Answer to Problem 5.61P
The given statement is false.
Explanation of Solution
The covalent bond energy depends on the strength of the bond or the number of shared pairs of electrons and the difference in the electronegativity.

Answer to Problem 5.61P
The given statement is true.
Explanation of Solution
London dispersion forces are weak intermolecular forces that arise due to electrostatic interactions. Electron density in any atom sometimes shifts more towards one-part of the atom and creates a temporary dipole. The attractions between these temporarily induced dipoles are called London dispersion forces. Hence, this statement is true.

Answer to Problem 5.61P
The given statement is false.
Explanation of Solution
Dipole-dipole interaction exists between dipoles. The CO molecule is a polar molecule, as carbon and oxygen nave three covalent bonds, one double bond, and one dative coordinate bond towards carbon from oxygen. Due to this coordinate bond, CO behaves like a dipole. CO2 has linear geometry and is a centrosymmetric molecule Thus; its dipole moment is zero. However, individual C —O bonds form a dipole. Therefore, dipole-dipole interactions are possible between CO2 molecules. Hence, this statement is false.

Answer to Problem 5.61P
The given statement is false.
Explanation of Solution
The dipole-dipole interactions exist between two identical polar molecules or between two different polar molecules. For such an interaction, the molecule should be polar. The strength of the dipole interaction depends on the electronegativity difference of the molecules. It the electronegativity difference for both molecules of the same molecular weight is the same, then the strength of the dipole-dipole interaction will be the same for both of the molecules. Hence, this statement is false.

Answer to Problem 5.61P
The given statement is true.
Explanation of Solution
The three major intermolecular forces between molecules are hydrogen bonding, dipole-dipole interactions, and London dispersion forces, and all of them are electrostatic, as these forces occur between positive for negative and negative for positive charges. Hence, this statement is true.

Answer to Problem 5.61P
The given statement is true.
Explanation of Solution
The hydrogen bonding in a water molecule has an important effect on the physical properties of liquid water. A hydrogen bond needs extra energy to separate each water molecule. Hence water has a high boiling point. Sulfur is less electronegative; thus, it has weak hydrogen bonding as compared to a water molecule. So, not as much heat is required to boil H2 S. Hence, this statement is true.

Answer to Problem 5.61P
The given statement is false.
Explanation of Solution
Oxygen is the second highest electronegative element, while nitrogen is the third most electronegative element in the periodic table. The hydrogen bonding In two different compounds depends on the electronegativity of the elements. Therefore, the strength of hydrogen bonding in an O-H bond is greater than in an N-H bond. Hence, this statement is false.
