Question

what are some examples of intermolecular forces?

Answer 1

Answer:

The examples of intermolecular forces are as follows:

1) Hydrogen bonding: Certain insects being able to walk on the surface of water. Water being able to dissolve polar molecules because water itself is polar due to the oxygen.

2) Hydrogen bonding which is important because without it, water wouldnt boil at such a convenient temperature.

3) Water is transported throughout the structure of a plant by the intermolecular forces of adhesion and cohesion.

4) In soaps and detergents, molecules liquid state experience strong intermolecular attractive forces.When those forces are between like molecules, they are referred to as cohesive forces. the molecules of a water droplet are held together by cohesive forces, and the especially strong cohesive forces at the surface to form surface tension. SO, surface tension is a type of intermolecular forces.
