Science > Chemistry > States of Matter > Hydrogen Bonding Consider two polar molecules water H2O (molecular mass 18 and dipole moment 1.8 D) and nitrosyl fluoride ONF (molecular mass 49 and dipole moment 1.8 D). As their dipole moments are the same, their boiling points should be comparable. But boiling point of water is 100° […]

Science > Chemistry > States of Matter > Interaction Between Molecules Intermolecular forces are the forces of attraction between neighbouring molecules, situated at a distance much closer in comparison with their molecular diameter. They vary from state to state of matter. These forces exist in all states of matter. Liquid and solid states of matter […]
