If a compound has a very low melting and boiling point, it is likely that the compound possesses mainly which type of intermolecular force?

dipole-dipole forces

hydrogen bonding

london dispersion forces

cannot determine from the information given

C.

Explanation:

Dipole-dipole forces and hydrogen bonding are much stronger, leading to higher melting and boiling points.

nacl or sodium chloride is an ionic compound. this is because an ionic compound pertains to a compound that consists of positively and negatively charged ions. in this case, na (sodium) has a tendency to lose one electron when it reacts with with other atoms, so the resulting sodium ion contains 11 protons and 10 electrons, thus making it positively charged (na+), when chlorine reacts, it usually gains one electron to form an ion called chloride, thus making it negatively charged ( since the ions are oppositely charged, they attract.
