Give examples of pairs of organic compounds that show that the standard order of IM forces taught in Gen Chem with respect to boiling point is just a tendency and not a hard rule. IM forces to compare: LDF vs. dipole-dipole, and dipole-dipole vs. hydrogen bonding

Explaaanation:

you need to take a look at the periodic system in order to sort these elements into pairs that would most likely exhibit similar chemical properties. first, you need to find elements that are found in the same group (groups are vertical in the periodic system), and then to see whether they have the same valence number. if they meet these criteria, they will have similar properties.

the first pair: ne (neon) and kr (krypton), are noble gases found in group 8

the second pair: li (lithium) and k (potassium), found in group 1

the third pair: s (sulfur) and te (tellurium), found in group 6

water at room temperature is flowing through a pipe with pressure taps located 10 ft apart along one section of the pipe, which are connected to a mercury (s=13.6) manometer.
