In the accompanying student activity, students use a simulation to investigate different types of intermolecular forces (London dispersion and dipole-dipole). In the analysis that follows the investigation, they relate IMFs (including hydrogen bonding) to physical properties (boiling point and solubility).

See accompanying lesson plan.

The simulation was created by the Concord Consortium for AACT using Next-Generation Molecular Workbench software, with funding by a grant from Google.org. If you liked this simulation, visit Molecular Workbench to see other interactive simulations.
