5. Arrange the following compounds in the order of decreasing strength of London
dispersion forces.

(b) CH4, CH3CH3, CH3CH2CH3
(c) Ar, He, Ne
6.
Ethanoic acid (CH3COOH) has a much lower vapor pressure than ethanol (CH3CH2OH). What is the
most reasonable explanation?
(A) The polarizability of two oxygen atoms increases the London forces of attraction in ethanoic acid
compared with ethanol.
(B) Hydrogen bonding in ethanoic acid is the strongest attractive force and is mainly responsible for
the observed data.
(C) Both ethanol and ethanoic acid have an – OH, so the difference is the dipole of the second oxygen
that increases the attractive forces.
(D) Ethanol has an - OH group and can hydrogen bond; therefore, the London forces must cause the
effect.
