Interpretation: The reason corresponding to the fact that the boiling point of is lower than that of iodine monochloride, even though they have nearly same molar mass are to be stated.
Concept introduction: The intermolecular interaction between non-polar or least polar molecules is known as dispersion force. This is also known as, London force in honor of the Fritz London’s great work on it. Boiling point of a compound is defined as the temperature at which the compounds start boiling. At this temperature the bonds present within the molecules start weakens and hence, liquid converts to the gaseous form.
To determine: The reason corresponding to the fact that the boiling point of is lower than that of iodine monochloride, even though they have nearly same molar mass.
