Step 1
When it dissolves in water, the sodium ions (Na+) and fluoride ions (F-) are attracted to the polar water molecules. This is due to ion-dipole attractions. Show more…

Consider the following substances: sodium fluoride (NaF), chlorine monofluoride (ClF), hydrogen fluoride (HF), and fluorine $\left(\mathrm{F}_{2}\right)$. (a) What type of particles does each substance have? (b) What type of intermolecular attractive forces hold the particles together in each substance? The table below lists the melting point (mp), boiling point (bp), density $(D),$ and solubility in water of each of these substances.(c) Based on this information, determine the relative strengths of the forces holding the particles together. (d) List the intermolecular attractive forces in order of increasing strength.
What kind of intermolecular forces act between a water molecule and a fluoride anion? Note: If there is more than one type of intermolecular force that acts, be sure to list them all, with a comma between the name of each force.
