Molecular polarity has a direct effect on the behavior of molecular compounds. The attractive forces between polar molecules are _____ than those between nonpolar molecules. It therefore takes _____ energy to separate polar molecules from each other, and a polar compound will have a _____ boiling point than a nonpolar compound of similar size.

Respuesta :

Answer:

Stronger

Greater

Higher

Explanation:

Molecules are held together by intermolecular forces. These are forces that act between molecules in a particular state matter. Intermolecular forces depend on the nature of the molecule.

For polar molecules, the intermolecular forces are stronger thus it takes more energy to separate them leading to a higher boiling point of polar molecules irrespective of their molecular mass.
