← ScienceWhich property results when intermolecular London dispersion forces weaken?
A)Increased vapor pressure✓
B)Higher tensile strength
C)Decreased surface tension
D)Elevated melting point
💡 Explanation
Increased vapor pressure occurs because weaker intermolecular forces require less energy to transition into the gaseous phase; therefore, vaporization increases rather than reduced surface tension, which requires strong cohesive forces and molecular attraction.
