Intermolecular forces tend to keep the molecules together but thermal energy of the molecules tends to keep them apart. The three states of matter are the result of the balance between intermolecular forces and thermal energy of the molecules.

Polymers are classified into four groups based on the magnitude of intermolecular forces. They ar —
(i) Elastomers
(ii) Fibers
(iii) Thermoplastic polymers
(iv) Thermosetting polymers
Polythene—Polythene is a thermoplastic polymer.
Bakelite— It is a thermosetting...
( a) In the molecules HCl, HBr and HI, dipole-dipole interaction and London forces are present.
(b) The dipole moment of HCl > HBr > HI but boiling point of HCl...
On increasing the temperature, the kinetic energy of liquid molecules increases so that it can overcome the attractive forces between the molecules and hence liquid can flow more easily i.e....
Balance of trade account includes only visible items of trade. It is defined as the difference between export of goods and import of goods. Balance of trade account = exports...
