Homework Statement
What type of intermolecular bonding occurs in gaseous CH4?
(A) covalent
(B) ionic
(C) hydrogen
(D) van der Waals
Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
Here is what I did: ruled out B (not ionic) and chose A. The correct answer is D. Is C wrong because hydrogen bonding only happens between polar molecules? Why is D correct over A? Is it because covalent = intramolecular, not intermolecular? Thanks in advance.
