Intermolecular Forces - Hydrogen Bonding, Dipole Dipole Interactions - Boiling Point & Solubility
The Organic Chemistry Tutor・2 minutes read
Dipole-dipole interactions happen in polar molecules with partial charges attracting each other. Hydrogen bonding, a special case of dipole-dipole interactions, results in stronger intermolecular forces in molecules like ammonia and methanol, leading to higher boiling points and water solubility.
Insights
- Dipole-dipole interactions between polar molecules like acetone and carbon monoxide create attractions between partial charges, influencing intermolecular forces.
- Hydrogen bonding, a special dipole-dipole interaction, occurs in molecules like water, ammonia, and methanol, leading to stronger forces, higher boiling points, and increased solubility in water.

Recent questions
What are dipole-dipole interactions?
Dipole-dipole interactions occur between polar molecules, where partial charges attract each other, creating a dipole-dipole interaction.
How do hydrogen bonds form?
Hydrogen bonding occurs when hydrogen is attached to nitrogen, oxygen, or fluorine.
What is the impact of hydrogen bonding on boiling points?
Molecules with hydrogen bonding have higher boiling points due to stronger intermolecular forces.
How does hydrogen bonding affect water solubility?
Hydrogen bonding increases water solubility in molecules.
Why do molecules with hydrogen bonding have higher boiling points?
Hydrogen bonds in molecules lead to stronger intermolecular forces, resulting in higher boiling points.
