(a) At 25 C and 1 atm, F 2 is a gas, whereas I 2 is a solid. Both F 2 and I 2 are nonpolar, so the only intermolecular attractive orces are London dispersion orces.

The ionic radius o Na + is smaller than the ionic radius o Cs + and the ionic radius o F is smaller than the ionic radius o Cl. Thereore, the ionic centers are closer in NaF than in CsCl. Melting occurs when the attraction between the cation and the anion are overcome due to thermal motion. Since the lattice energy is inversely proportional to the distance between the ion centers (Coulomb s Law), the compound with the smaller ions will have the stronger attractions and the higher melting point. 1 point or indicating that NaF and CsCl are both ionic compounds (or are composed o M + and X ions) 1 point or indicating that the strength o these orces is determined by the distance between the ionic centers (or the size o the ions) (c) The shape o the ICl 4 ion is square planar, whereas the shape o the BF 4 ion is tetrahedral.
