The molecule I2 has a lower melting point than Cl2. TRUE FALSE

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It's false because Cl2 is a gas at room temp and I2 is a solid. This is because I2 has stronger dispersion forces than Cl2. I2 is larger and more polarizable so it has stronger induced dipoles that hold it together.
