Of the substances i2 and Br2, iodine is a solid while bromine is a liquid at room temperature because it has stronger London forces.rnrnquestion 13 options:rn truern false
Accepted Answer
False. While London dispersion forces are present in both I2 and Br2, the difference in their physical state at room temperature is primarily due to the larger size and higher molar mass of iodine. Larger molecules have a greater electron cloud, leading to stronger London dispersion forces and a higher melting point.
