Which of the following compounds will behave least like an ideal gas at low temperatures? A) Ar B) CCl₄ C) O₂ D) Kr E) F₂

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The compound CCl₄ (carbon tetrachloride) has strong intermolecular forces due to its polar bonds and lack of symmetry, which make it less likely to behave like an ideal gas at low temperatures. The other compounds listed are either noble gases (Ar, Kr) or diatomic molecules with relatively weak intermolecular forces (O2, F2).
