Name the type(s) of intermolecular forces that exists between molecules (or basic units) in each of the following species. (select all that apply.) (a) ch4 dipole-dipole dispersion ion-dipole ion-ion (b) no2 dipole-dipole dispersion ion-dipole ion-ion (c) soz dipole-dipole dispersion ion-dipole o ion-ion

Explanation:

(a) CH₄

The molecule of methane is non polar in nature , hence it will show only the dispersion forces .

(b) NO₂

The molecule of nitrogen dioxide will show both dipole-dipole interactions and dispersion forces as well .

Since , the molecule is has an electronegative atom , i.e. , oxygen , so will show dipole - dipole interactions .

(c) SO₂

The molecule of sulfur dioxide will show both  dipole-dipole interactions and dispersion forces as well .

Since , the molecule is has an electronegative atom , i.e. , oxygen , so will show dipole - dipole interactions .
