Question

What is the relation between inter molecular force and melting point?

Open in App

Solution

The relationship between intermolecular forces of forces of attraction and melting point is:
weaker the intermolecular forces of attraction in a substance, lower is its melting point. This is because, the energy required for the substance to overcomes these forces of attraction will be lesser, and thus, they melt at lower temperature.
