Q.

Intermolecular forces are forces of attraction and repulsion between interacting particles that will include:

A. dipole - dipole forces.

B. dipole - induced dipole forces

C. hydrogen bonding

D. covalent bonding

E. dispersion forces

Choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:

  1. A

    A, B, C, D are correct

  2. B

    A, B, C, E are correct

  3. C

    A, C, D, E are correct

  4. D

    B, C, D, E are correct

Solution

Intermolecular forces act between molecules. Dipole–dipole, dipole–induced dipole, hydrogen bonding, and London dispersion forces (A, B, C, E) all qualify.

Covalent bonding (D) is an intramolecular force — it acts between atoms inside a molecule, not between molecules — so it is excluded.
