Development of the Modern Freezer. Bacteria are usually the cause of food decay, but they can't grow as well or at all in freezing temperatures, which are at 32 degrees Fahrenheit (0 degrees Celsius) or lower.
HF- polar molecule: dipole-dipole forces. There are also dispersion forces and H bond between HF. BF3- nonpolar: dispersion forces. Ar- Dispersion forces between Ar atoms.
Intermolecular forces are the forces of attraction or repulsion which act between neighboring particles (atoms, molecules, or ions ). These forces are weak compared to the intramolecular forces, such as the covalent or ionic bonds between atoms in a molecule.
