INTERMOLECULAR FORCES INTRODUCTION LEARNING OBJECTIVES To relate the effecet of intermolecular forces on relative melting points and vapour pressures of some organic substances THEORY Weak attractive forces that occur between individual molecules in substances are called intermolecular forces. These include London dispersion forces, dipole-dipole forces and hydrogen-bonding forces. Collectively, the three types of intermolecular forces are referred to as Van der Waals forces. These attractive forces are much weaker than the chemical bonds between atoms in a molecule. Note that...
