Intermolecular Forces

Question 4 • *26-27 CFISD TX-Chemistry A CR

Which of the following most likely requires intermolecular forces?

Answer
A
a spider walking on the bottom of a leaf
B
a rock maintaining its solid shape
C
a koala using claws to hold onto a tree
D
a piece of fruit falling from a branch to the ground

Explanation

A spider walking on the bottom of a leaf depends on attraction between molecules at the spider’s feet and the leaf’s surface, so intermolecular forces help it stick. A rock’s solid shape and a koala’s grip mainly involve other material or mechanical forces, while fruit falling is caused by gravity.
