Curie Notes 20: Polarity and Intermolecular Forces
Why does ether vanish from a dish while water lingers, and why does the Vistula freeze from the top? The answer is in the forces between molecules.
Learn bond polarity, dipole moments and molecular polarity, then London forces, dipole forces and hydrogen bonds, and why water boils high and ice floats.
