Chapter 7, Problem 1IA.6Q

Summary Introduction

To explain:

The differences between boiling points of pure water ($\text{100}°\text{C}$) and pure methanol ($65°\text{C}$) based on the strength of number of attractive forces present in each.

Introduction:

The molecules connect to other molecules in major two states “solids” and “liquids”. The molecules connect due to the attractive forces acting among them. These forces of attraction result in the formation of physical characteristics (viscosity, melting point, and boiling point) of molecules.
