In dichloromethane,CH2Cl2 ,the dispersion force contribution to the intermolecular

Chapter 18, Problem 11.76

(choose chapter or problem)

In dichloromethane, \(\mathrm{CH}_2 \mathrm{Cl}_2(\mu=1.60 \mathrm{D})\), the dispersion force contribution to the intermolecular attractive forces is about five times larger than the dipole-dipole contribution. Compared to \(\mathrm{CH}_2 \mathrm{Cl}_2\), would you expect the relative importance of the dipole-dipole contribution to increase or decrease

(a) in dibromomethane ( \(\mu=1.43 \mathrm{D})\),

(b) in difluoromethane \((\mu=1.93 \mathrm{D})\)? Explain.
