Question

(b) critical temperature for carbon dioxide and methane are 31.1oc and - 81.9oc respectively.which of these has stronger intermolecular forces and why?

Answer 1

Hey mate here is your answer......❤❤❤


This answer is verified✅✅

Higher is the critical temperature of a gas easier is its liquefaction.This means that the inter molecular forces of attraction between the molecules of a gas are directly proportional to its critical temperature.Hence, intermolecular forces of attraction are stronger in the case of CO2.

hope you help.......❇❇❇☺☺❤❤

Answer 2

The maximum temperature at which a gas can be converted into a liquid by an increase in pressure is called its critical temperature(Tc). This means that the intermolecular forces of attraction between the molecules of a gas are directly proportional to its critical temperature. Hence, intermolecular forces of attraction are stronger in the case of CO2.
