Expert Solution
Step 1
The list of the different types of intermolecular forces is as:
| Type of IMF | Types of species involved |
Attractive strength |
| Ion-Ion | Cations and anions only. | Very high |
| Ion-Dipole | Ions and a polar molecule. | Stronger |
| Dipole-Dipole | Polar molecules | Moderately strong |
| Dipole-Induced dipole | A polar molecule interacting with a non-polar molecule | Very weak |
|
Induced dipole-Induced dipole (London Dispersion forces) |
Non-polar molecules | Very weak |
|
Hydrogen bonding (Dipole-Dipole) |
Polar molecules (H of one atom interacts with the electronegative atom of another molecule) | Strong |
