Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which of the following has the weakest intermolecular forces?
A
CH3F
B
CH4
C
C3H8
D
C2H6
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Noble gases have the least intermolecular forces (dipole induced dipole)

Detailed explanation-2: -Because methane is a non-polar molecule it is not capable of hydrogen bonding or dipole-dipole intermolecular forces.

Detailed explanation-3: -Methane is a non-polar molecule. Being a non-polar molecule, the strongest intermolecular forces operating in methane are London-dispersion forces.
