Electron distribution is usually uniform. At one point, spontaneously, an accumulation happens.
The possibilty of that happening is very less.
So when that accumulation happens, Van der Walls are created. And it increases bp and mp.
If the chance is less, how is it that bp and mp are constant?

Honestly, i had to read that thrice to get it coz you know, exam mode and all. :p :cool: Interesting, though.
I am assuming that this should just be another "assumption" we make for ease and for study purposes (for example, not all the weight of an object actually acts at the centre of mass) OR that in a huge number of molecules, some or the other molecules must be having a charge so then that is induced to other molecules.
If you find anything about it, let me know. (y)

Don't really make sense to me. Van der waals are the attraction of electron clouds to nucleus of neighboring molecules, what does it have to do with distribution?

true that ... one of my friend made me asked me to explain some force question and when i marked the weight acting at the centre of the object, she threw a tantrum saying the weight doesn't only act at the centre! and we wasted a complete hour researching and hence we came to know it is a mere assumption.

Thomas had to get it wrong so many times before he got it right :p and we wont know about gravity if Newton didnt question himself about a falling apple :p
