Ammonia's Intermolecular forces
 
Besides hydrogen bonding, what are the other forces in ammonia?

There will be covalent bonds between the nitrogen and the hydrogen atoms.

I dunno if you are special but covalent bonds help zero because thats obvious when they are both non-metals. I need to know like dipole-dipole or dispersion forces.

Well, as far as my knowledge is concerned there are no other intermolecular forces in ammonia other than H-bondings.

ALL molecules have intermolecular Van der Waals forces - it's just that hydrogen bonding is more effective so has more influence on the final properties

Oh, :oops: i didn't know that...Thanks :D
