Icl has a higher boiling point than br2. what is the best explanation for this?
a.)br2 experiences dipole0dipole interactions.
b.)icl experiences dipole0dipole interactions.
c.)br2 forms hydrogen bonds.
d.)icl experiences induced dipole0induced dipole interactions.

 Iodine (I) and chlorine (Cl) are both in group 7 of the periodic table. Since electronegativity decreases as you go down a group,  Cl will have a greater attraction for the pair of shared electrons that forms the bond between it and I. We can have a dipole forming because of this thus; dipole-dipole interactions can occur between identical ICl molecules.

As the bromine atoms in Br2 are identical, shared electrons that form the bond between the atoms are not pushed towards one or the other, because both have an equal attraction. Therefore, no dipole can occur and these electrostatic interactions between the molecules cannot be seen with Br2. Thus, this is why you would expect ICl to have a higher boiling point

americans began to notice growing differences between the northern and southern sections of the country. there were more people living in cities in the north, which made it more urban. more people lived on farms in the south, which made it more rural. while many people were farmers in the northern states, there were now other ways to make a living, such as working in mechanical cotton gins factories manufacturing cloth, tools and other goods. people in the north supported high tariffs on goods imported from europe because the extra cost encouraged people to “buy american” instead. in the southern states, planters did not like tariffs because they sold most of their production to europe and bought their tools from there as well. southerners believed the protective tariff was something that only northern factory owners keep their profits high. so the southern politicians came up with an idea. they would opt out. they would simply ignore the protective tariff. it was ‘null and void’ in south carolina. the state would not collect the taxes on goods imported into south carolina, no matter what the president said they had to do. this decision led to the nullification crisis.
