Question

which forces are responsible for holding the constituent particles in solid carbon dioxide​

Answer 1

Carbon Dioxide ( CO2 ) has covalent bonds and dispersion forces. CO₂ is a linear molecule. The O-C-O bond angle is 180°.

Answer 2

Answer:

Carbon Dioxide ( CO2)

has covalent bonds and dispersion forces.

CO₂ is a linear molecule. The O-C-O bond angle is 180°.

Since O is more electronegative than C, the C-O bond is polar with the negative end pointing toward the O.

CO has two C-O bonds. The dipoles point in opposite directions, so they cancel each other out.

Thus, although CO₂ has polar bonds, it is a nonpolar molecule. Therefore, the only intermolecular forces are London dispersed. pls Mark me brainliest
