force of attraction between the positive end of one molecule and the negative end of another molecule
Dipole-dipole forces
the strongest of all the intermolecular forces
Dipole-dipole forces
This bonding occurs in molecules with H-F , H-O , and H-N bonds:
hydrogen bonding
In this type of bonding, large positive charge on H is attracted to an unshared pair of electrons on a neighboring molecule.
hydrogen bonding

London Dispersion Forces
The only type of intermolecular force between nonpolar molecules
London Dispersion Forces
Electronegativity difference of more than 1.7 results in this kind of bonding.
Ionic
Electronegativity difference between o.3 and 1.7 results in this kind of bonding.
polar covalent
Electronegativity difference of less than 0.3 results in this kind of bonding.
