Chemistry Question on Hybridisation
The types of attractive forces between a polar molecule and a non-polar molecule are
A
dipole-dipole forces
B
hydrogen bonds
C
dipole-induced dipole forces
D
dispersion forces.
Answer
dipole-induced dipole forces
Explanation
Solution
A dipole-induced dipole attraction is a weak attraction that results when a polar molecule induces a dipole in an atom or in a non-polar molecule by disturbing the arrangement of electrons in the non-polar species.
