Dichlorodifluoromethane (CF₂Cl2) is a

Dichlorodifluoromethane (CF₂Cl2) is a CFC (chlorofluorocarbon) molecule that used tobe used as a refrigerant, though people discovered that CFCs harm Earth's ozone (O3)layer, which protects us from the sun's harmful UV rays. Another type of harmful CFC is CHF₂CI, called chlorodifluoromethane. The boiling point of CHF₂Cl is about -41°C, and the boiling point of CF2Cl2 is -30°C. CHF₂CI has a [Select] boiling point than CF₂Cl₂ CHF₂CI has a [Select] vapor pressure than CF₂Cl₂ thus, we can conclude that CHF₂Cl has [Select] IMF than CF₂Cl2
