Easy MCQ +4 / -1 PYQ · JEE Mains 2020

The relative strength of interionic/intermolecular forces in decreasing order is :

  1. A dipole-dipole $>$ ion-dipole $>$ ion-ion
  2. B ion-dipole $>$ dipole-dipole $>$ ion-ion
  3. C ion-dipole $>$ ion-ion $>$ dipole-dipole
  4. D ion-ion $>$ ion-dipole $>$ dipole-dipole Correct answer

Solution

Ionic interactions are stronger as compared to van der waal interactions. <br><br>So, correct order is <br><br>ion-ion $&gt;$ ion-dipole $&gt;$ dipole-dipole
