Answer:

1. None of these have hydrogen bonding.

2. None of these have dipoles.

3. Bigger molecules will have stronger London dispersion forces. So I2 has the strongest forces,

and F2 will have the weakest. Correspondingly, I2 will have the highest boiling point and F2 will have the lowest boiling point.

Answer: F2, Cl2, Br2, I2

The order of the boiling points of the given molecules are required.

The required order is [tex]F_2,Cl_2,Br_2[/tex] and [tex]I_2[/tex].

The boiling points of the molecules are

[tex]Br_2=58.8^{\circ}\text{C}[/tex]

[tex]Cl_2=-34.04^{\circ}\text{C}[/tex]

[tex]F_2=-188.13^{\circ}\text{C}[/tex]

[tex]I_2=184.4^{\circ}\text{C}[/tex]

So, the increasing order of the boiling points are [tex]F_2,Cl_2,Br_2[/tex] and [tex]I_2[/tex].
