Types of intermolecular forces
A
Dispersion
Dipole Dipole
Hydrogen
Ion Dipole
2
Q
What are dispersion forces
A
Dispersion forces exists between all molecules and is causes by temporary dipoles caused by the presence of electrons. It is the weakest imf
3
Q
What are dipole dipole forces
A
Occurs in polar molecules between areas of positive and negative charge concentration. They can induce dipoles in non polar molecules. The are the 2nd weakest imf
4
Q
What are hydrogen forces
A
Hydrogen forces are a form of dipole dipole that exists as a result of hydrogen atoms in a bond with highly electronegative atoms and another molecule with a lone pair of electrons. They are the strongest IMF
