Attractive force occurring between all types of molecules; caused by random electron movement creating instantaneous, temporary dipoles
Back
Dipole-induced dipole forces
Front
Attractive force occurring between polar molecules and nonpolar molecules; the nonpolar molecule's electron cloud is temporarily distorted (polarized) due to the presence of the + or - end of the polar molecule
Back
Hydrogen bonds
Front
Attractive force between an H atom (covalently bonded to an electronegative atom - O, N, F) and lone pair electrons (on another electronegative atom - O, N, F)
Back
Ion-induced dipole forces
Front
Attractive force between an ion and the oppositely charged end of a polar molecule.
Back
Intermolecular force
Front
WEAK attractive force between separate molecules (or particles)
Back
Dipole-dipole forces
Front
Attractive force between + end of one polar molecule and - end of another polar molecule.
Back
Intramolecular Force
Front
STRONG bond within a molecule
Back
Ion-dipole
Front
Attractive force between an ion and the oppositely charged end of a polar molecule
