There are weak intermolecular forces between isooctane molecules and here is how we know:
-
Isooctane has a high vapor pressure meaning the molecules are not held tightly to one another.
-
Isooctane molecules are held together by only london dispersion forces.
-
Isooctane has a low boiling point.
-
Isooctane is a liquid at room temperature
-
Isooctane has no hydrogen bonding as seen in its lewis structure, it has no oxygen, nitrogen, or fluorine
