do both the statements mean the same thing?
-compound A has intermolecular permanent dipole–permanent dipole
attractions
-pd-pd attractions exist between A molecules
or should i write something like "Intermolecular pd-pd
attractions exists between A molecules" which of the
statements is the most correct?
also do i call pd-pd and id-id as interactions or attractions or
forces of attraction?
sorry if my question sounds confusing becuase i am a bit
confused about the phrasing of answers.
Just to check, are you a school candidate or private candidate, and
are you taking A levels this year? You've been asking a mixture of
J1 and J2 topics.
You're not allowed to use acronyms such as pd-pd in the A level
exams. Zero marks.
Interactions include both attractions and repulsions, and
depending on context, either or both can be used.
Students are advised to use the following phrasing in the A
level exams :
Between polar molecules, the intermolecular interactions are
permanent dipole - permanent dipole Keesom van der Waals
forces.
