A student compares the boiling point of substances having different intermolecular forces. What scientific question is the student most likely investigating?

Does the nature of intermolecular forces present in different substance affect their boiling points?

Explanation:

In every scientific research there must be a dependent and an independent variable. These variables are easily deduced from the scientific question that is being investigated.

If a student is comparing the boiling points of different substances having different intermolecular forces, then his or her aim is to establish a relationship between the nature of intermolecular forces present (independent variable) and the observed boiling point of the substance (dependent variable).

This is aptly shown by the research question ' Does the nature of intermolecular forces present in different substance affect their boiling points?'
