a) melting point - increases OK
b) vapor pressure-increases As the IM forces increase, it makes it harder for the molecules to escape to the vapor phase (the pressure of the gas over the liquid); therefore, the vapor pressure must decrease.
c) boiling point- increases OK
d) viscosity - decreases As IM forces increase it makes it harder for the molecules to slide across each other; therefore, the viscosity must increase.
e) surface tension - decreases As the IM forces increase, it makes the molecules attract more strongly; therefore, surface tension increases.
