• Problems Discussed In Class Groups in class identified the types of interactions that would occur in pure samples of the following molecules of similar molecular weights: 1-butanol: strongest intermolecular interaction is hydrogen bonding, gives relatively high boiling point (actual BP=117.
• The third type of intermolecular interaction is the hydrogen bond and can be regarded as an extreme form of dipole-dipole interaction that occurs when hydrogen is bonded to the elements nitrogen, oxygen and fluorine.
• Since atomic arrangements with this mutual orientation result in a smaller overlap between the flat areas of adjacent C70, the energy gain due to the intermolecular interaction is smaller than that for the orientation of θ= 0.
• A reduced effect is noticed in the MP2 results, probably indicating that the charge-transfer contribution to the intermolecular interaction is less significant at this level.
• The nature of the intermolecular interaction is not well understood and is still a matter of some debate; A number of theories were put forward in the 1960s, of which those proposed by McConnell have received greatest attention [2].
