Q.In which of the answers below are the substances listed in order of increasing melting
point?
a) Cl2 < CHF3 < H2O < CHCl3 < SiO2
b) Cl2 < CHCl3 < CHF3 < H2O < SiO2
c) Cl2 < CHF3 < CHCl3 < H2O < SiO2
d) Cl2 < H2O < CHF3 < CHCl3 < SiO2
e) SiO2 < H2O < CHCl3 < CHF3 < Cl2
How can we tell the melting points of these substances by there intermolecular forces?
ok H20 has hydrogen bonding, SiO2 has strong covalent bonds,CHF3 has dipole forces
So how can develop a trend in melting points with the IM forces?
Any suggestions?
The answer is C
