  • This question is about chlorine.
    Chlorine has a low boiling point because the forces between the molecules
    are weak.
    Explain how these forces arise between molecules of chlorine.
    (Random) movement of electrons in one molecule (creates a dipole) /
    an imbalance in electron density in one molecule - Tempory dipole
    Induces a dipole in a neighbouring molecule. 1
    (These) temporary dipoles attract.
