In which molecule the van der Waals’ force is likely to be the most important in determining the m.p. and b.p.?

View answer and explanation

Correct option: A

\mathrm{B}{\mathrm{r}_2}

Option A (

\mathrm{B}{\mathrm{r}_2}

) is correct because bromine is a large, nonpolar molecule with a significant number of electrons, leading to strong London dispersion forces (a type of Van der Waals force) that significantly influence its melting and boiling points.

If for the gases, the critical temperatures are mentioned below i.e.

\begin{array}{cccccccccccccccccccc} {\underline {{\text{Gas}}} }&{\underline {\,{\text{Critical}}\,\,{\text{temperature}}} } \\ {\text{A}}&{{T_{{C_1}}}} \\ {\text{B}}&{{T_{{C_2}}}} \\ {\text{C}}&{{T_{{C_3}}}} \\ {\text{D}}&{{T_{{C_4}}}} \end{array}

{T_{{C_1}}} > {T_{{C_2}}} > {T_{{C_3}}} > {T_{{C_4}}}
