Question

what type or types of intermolecular forces exist or exists in the molecule below? hbr

Explanation:

Brief Explanations
  1. London - Dispersion forces exist in all molecules as they result from temporary fluctuations in electron - cloud distribution.
  2. HBr is a polar molecule because of the electronegativity difference between H and Br. The more electronegative Br attracts the shared electrons more, creating a dipole. So, dipole - dipole forces are present.
  3. Hydrogen bonding occurs when H is bonded to N, O, or F. Since Br is not N, O, or F, there is no hydrogen bonding in HBr. Also, HBr is a covalent molecule, so there is no ionic bonding.

Answer:

London Dispersion forces & dipole dipole
