Which statement accounts for iodine being less volatile than chlorine?
- AChlorine is more electronegative than iodine and so has more repulsion between its molecules.
- BThe greater number of electrons in iodine leads to larger temporary dipole-induced dipole forces.
- CThe I-I bond energy is smaller than the Cl-Cl bond energy.
- DThe iodine molecules have stronger permanent dipole-permanent dipole forces.
