Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Among the following processes, the process in which it is necessary to break the covalent bonds as opposed to overcome intermolecular forces should be determined.

(a) Melting mothballs made of naphthalene.

(b) Dissolving HBr gas in water to form hydrobromic acid.

(c) Vaporizing ethyl alcohol C2H5OH.

(d) Changing ozone O3to oxygen gas O2.

Concept introduction:

Intermolecular forces are the forces which are present between two same or different types of molecules. These are responsible for the state of any substance.

Covalent bonds are the bonds formed by sharing of one or more than one electron.
