What intermolecular forces are present among molecules in dimethyl ether, CH3OCH3?
a) London forces only
b) hydrogen bonding only
c) both London dispersion forces and hydrogen bonding
d) both London dispersion forces and dipole-dipole forces

Answer :

Answer:

London forces only

Explanation:

Dimethyl ether is a nonpolar organic compound. Remember that for nonpolar organic substances, London forces are the primary intermolecular forces present.

Since dimethyl ether is a nonpolar organic compound, then it has London forces as its major intermolecular force. Intermolecular forces hold molecules of a substance together in a given state of matter.
