Phosphorus tribromide (PBr3) is a polar molecule due to the difference in electronegativity between phosphorus and bromine, resulting in a dipole moment. However, the primary intermolecular forces in PBr3 are dipole-dipole interactions because of this polarity. Additionally, PBr3 may exhibit some London dispersion forces, but dipole-dipole interactions dominate in this case.
