Repulsion of electrons within two interacting molecules produces changes in elec

Question

Repulsion of electrons within two interacting molecules produces changes in electron distribution. This change in electron distribution creates temporary dipole moments. Which of the following does this explain? 10th attempt i See Periodic Table See Hint Choose one or more: A. This explains why long hydrocarbon chains have relatively high boiling points. B. This explains how the molecules hydrogenfluoride and methanol can exhibt uncharacteristically strong intermolecular forces. C. This explains why the dipole-dipole attractive force between dimethyl ether and acetone does not entirely account for the attractive force between these molecules. D. This explains why ammonia and nitrogen gas exhibit an attractive force between them. E. This explains how two noble gases' molecules can have an attractive force between them.

Explanation / Answer

Nobel gases do not have any type of attractive force between them, the pnly force of attraction these gases have is London forces or dispersive forces, which usually become prominent at low temperature.

London or dispersion forces are intermolecular force of attraction due to instantaneous dipole produced between atoms and molecules.

answer is

E. This explains how two nobel gases molecule can have an attractive force between them.
