Question
Which of the following pairs correctly matches the intermolecular interaction with its interaction energy dependence on distance ($r$)?
Answer: A,B,C
💡 Solution & Explanation
Dipole-induced dipole and London dispersion interaction energies both depend on $1/r^6$. Ion-induced dipole energy depends on $1/r^4$. (Ion-dipole energy depends on $1/r^2$, making the last match incorrect).
