Base your answer on the information below. The hydrocarbon 2-methylpropane reacts with iodine as represented by the balanced equation below. At standard pressure, the boiling point of 2-methylpropane is lower than the boiling point of 2-iodo-2-methylpropane. Explain the difference in the boiling points of 2-methylpropane and 2-iodo-2-methylpropane in terms of both molecular polarity and intermolecular forces.

See explanation

Explanation:

The boiling point of a substance is affected by the nature of bonding in the molecule as well as the nature of intermolecular forces between molecules of the substance.

2-methylpropane has only pure covalent and nonpolar C-C and C-H bonds. As a result of this, the molecule is nonpolar and the only intermolecular forces present are weak dispersion forces. Therefore, 2-methylpropane has a very low boiling point.

As for 2-iodo-2-methylpropane, there is a polar C-I bond. This now implies that the intermolecular forces present are both dispersion forces and dipole interaction. As a result of the presence of stronger dipole interaction between 2-iodo-2-methylpropane molecules, the compound has a higher boiling point than  2-methylpropane.

answer is d because it is trust me

your answers are a,b,,e and f

i hope this
