Repulsion of electrons within two interacting molecules produces changes in electron distribution. This change in electron distribution creates temporary dipole moments. Which of the following does this explain?
Choose one or more:
A. This explains why the dipole-dipole attractive force between dimethyl ether and acetone does not entirely account for the attractive force between these molecules. B. This explains why ammonia and nitrogen gas exhibit an attractive force between them. C. This explains how the molecules hydrogen fluoride and methanol can exhibit uncharacteristically strong intermolecular forces. D. This explains how two noble gases' molecules can have an attractive force between them. E. This explains why long hydrocarbon chains have relatively high boiling points.
