(GCE AS/A LEVEL) MAY JUNE 2011 PAPER 23 QUESTION 2C
For this question , is it correct to say that Nitrogen has stronger Van Der Waals forces compared to Neon because the size of Nitrogen atom is bigger than Neon atom ( Size of atom decreases across the period ) .
(I assume that there was a typo in the mark scheme and the word "argon" should've been replaced by Neon)
Thanks in advance !
