There are two molecular orbitals in the CH2O or formaldehyde. These are designated by the two types of bonding involved. The first is the sigma bonding. It is the head-on overlap of electrons of the C and H atoms. The second molecular orbital is formed from the pi orbital bonding. This is a sideway overlap of electrons between C-O bonding.
Electron was discovered by J. J. Thomson in 1897 when he was studying the properties of cathode ray.
Answer:
a)CH₄, BH₃, and CCl₄
Explanation:
<u>London dispersion forces:-
</u>
The bond for example, in the molecule is F-F, which is non-polar in nature because the two fluorine atoms have same electronegativity values.
The intermolecular force acting in the molecule are induced dipole-dipole forces or London Dispersion forces / van der Waals forces which are the weakest intermolecular force.
Out of the given options, H₂O , NH₃ exhibits hydrogen bonding which is:-
<u>Hydrogen bonding:-
</u>
Hydrogen bonding is a special type of the dipole-dipole interaction and it occurs between hydrogen atom that is bonded to highly electronegative atom which is either fluorine, oxygen or nitrogen atom.
Thus option B and C rules out.
<u>Hence, the correct option which represents the molecules which would exhibit only London forces is:- a)CH₄, BH₃, and CCl₄</u>
The answer would be Force
