Respuesta :
The strongest forces are those that have a really tight hold on molecules. Covalent bonds are extremely strong because those are direct connections. Hydrogen bonds are connections between molecules, and are weaker than covalent bonds. For your information, hydrogen bonds are a type of dipole-dipole interaction. The weakest forces are London Disperson Forces (all atoms and molecules have those with one another). If by dipole you mean ionic dipole, then the ANSWER: London Dispersion, Hydrogen, Covalent, Ionic-dipole
Answer:
weakest to strongest
- dispersion forces
- dipole-dipole interactions
- hydrogen bonding
- covalent bonding
Explanation:
Covalent bonding is an intramolecular interactions that hold the atoms together. Dispersion forces, hydrogen bonding and dipole-dipole interactions are intermolecular interactions . Intramolecular interactions are stronger than intermolecular interactions .
Dipole-dipole interactions occur when the partially positively charged part of a molecule interacts with the partially negatively charged part of the neighboring molecule. They are relative strong.
Hydrogen bonding is a special kind of dipole-dipole interaction that occurs specifically between a hydrogen atom bonded to either an oxygen, nitrogen, or fluorine atom. It is the strongest dipole-dipole interaction.
Dispersion forces exist between all types of molecules, whether ionic or covalent (polar or nonpolar). They are the weakest of the intermolecular forces.
