Which of the following has weakest London dispersion forces
a. F2
b. Cl2
C. Br2
d. I2
Answers
Explanation:
London Dispersion Forces. The London dispersion force is the weakest intermolecular force. The London dispersion force is a temporary attractive force that results when the electrons in two adjacent atoms occupy positions that make the atoms form temporary dipoles.
Answer:
a.F2 molecule
Explanation:
London dispersion forces are the type of intermolecular forces in which it intanstaneously make the non polar molecule to polar molecule
factors on which LDF depends are as under
i.e , 1.it depends upon the size of molecule
it means the larger the size the larger will be the LDF , size of molecule and LDF are directly related
2.shape of molecule
shape of molecule is also directly related with LDF , the more complex the shape the more LDF are there.
hence, the F2 molecule have smaller size than other halogens that's why it has weakest LDF
