Indicate all the types of intermolecular forces of attraction in SO₂(l). A) Dispersion and Dipole-dipole B) Dipole-dipole and Ionic C) Ion-dipole and Hydrogen bonding D) Hydrogen bonding and Dispersion E) Dispersion

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Dispersion forces are present in all molecules, regardless of their polarity. Since SO₂(l) is a chemical formula that doesn't correspond to a real compound and seems to be a placeholder, we can infer that dispersion forces (also known as London dispersion forces) would be present as they are universal. Additionally, if we were to consider any polar characteristics or molecular dipoles in a real compound, dipole-dipole interactions could also be applicable. However, without a specific, real compound, the inclusion of dipole-dipole interactions is speculative based on the presence of potential polar bonds in a real molecule.
