Molecules of hydrogen chloride, HCl, and molecules of fluorine, F2, contain the same number of electrons. Hydrogen chloride boils at –85 °C and fluorine boils at –188 °C. Explain why there is a difference in the boiling points of HCl and F2.

F2 has temporary dipole-dipole interactions known as van der Waals’ forces. Whilst HCl has permanent dipole-dipole interactions. The intermolecular forces in HCl are stronger than that in F2 (permanent di...
