What type of intermolecular force happens with a polar covalent molecule when dipoles are created due to un-equal sharing of electrons?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Dipole-dipole interaction force

Explanation:

When one of the constituent atom of the covalent bonding is at least 1.5 times more electronegative than the other atom sharing the electron in the covalent bond then the shared pair of electrons are shifted towards the more electronegative atom developing a partial negative charge on it and similarly develops an equal partial positive charge on the other atom involved in the covalent bond.

  • This happens in water molecules and the resulting dipole is the cause of hydrogen bonding between two molecules of water. Hydrogen bond also exists in (HF) hydrogen fluoride molecules.
