At the death of Armisteads widow in 1861, the Star-Spangled Banner was bequeathed to his daughter, Georgiana Armistead Appleton, who recognized that it held national as well as familial significance. As its owner, she permitted the flag to be publicly exhibited on several occasions.
London Dispersion Forces. The London dispersion force is the weakest intermolecular force. The London dispersion force is a temporary attractive force that results when the electrons in two adjacent atoms occupy positions that make the atoms form temporary dipoles. This force is sometimes called an induced dipole-induced dipole attraction.
As a result, the strongest type of intermolecular interaction between molecules of these substances is the London dispersion force . Due to the fact that the polar bonds do not cancel in the remaining molecules, they exhibit dipole - dipole interactions: these are stronger than London dispersion forces. However, #HF# exhibits hydrogen bonding - a stronger force still that is similar to the dipole - dipole interaction - whilst #CHF_3# does not. Thus, strength of intermolecular forces between molecules of each of these substances can be expressed, in terms of strength, as: #CF_4 = OF_2 < CHF_3 < HF#.
