Rank the following IMFs by typical strength (strongest first): H-bond, dispersion, ion-ion, dipole-dipole.
- A
Dispersion > H-bond > dipole-dipole > ion-ion
- B
Dipole-dipole > ion-ion > H-bond > dispersion
- C
All equal
- Dcheck_circle
Ion-ion > H-bond > dipole-dipole > dispersion
Explanation
Ion-ion (full charges) > H-bond > dipole-dipole > dispersion. Stronger forces → higher melting/boiling points and other consequences.
