Question 13: Intermolecular forces

Answer:

These are not bonding interactions between atoms within a molecule but instead are weaker forces of attraction between whole molecules.

Question 14: Dispersion forces

Answer:

are the weakest of all the intermolecular forces. Sometimes the electrons within an element or compound will concentrate themselves on one side of an atom. This causes a momentary or temporary dipole, which would be attracted to another momentary dipole of opposite charge in another near element or compound.
