Rank the following in the order of increasing strength of dispersion forces in gas phase: CH4, CO2, He, Br2
Added by Juan A.
Step 1
Step 1: Identify the molecules given in the question and their properties: - CH4 (methane): small size, low molar mass - CO2 (carbon dioxide): larger size, higher molar mass than CH4 - He (helium): smallest size, lowest molar mass - Br2 (bromine): larger size, Show more…
