What are London Dispersion Forces?
Think about why even nonpolar atoms still have some interactions.
What type of interaction occurs between HCl molecules?
Recall what makes HCl a polar molecule.
Which intermolecular force is present in all molecules?
Remember that every atom can have at least some degree of attraction.
True or False: Hydrogen bonds are weaker than ionic bonds.
Consider the types of interactions and how they compare in strength.
Explain how the surface area of a molecule affects the strength of London dispersion forces, citing specific examples.
Consider the shape and structure of hydrocarbons to determine surface area.
Compare how the presence of hydrogen bonding in proteins affects their structure versus similar structures without hydrogen bonds.
Think about how different forces can stabilize structures at a molecular level.
