Which of the following bond types is the strongest?
question options:
a) hydrogen bond
b) ion - dipole
c) dipole - dipole
d) ion - induced dipole
e) dipole - induced dipole

b) Ion-dipole

Explanation:

Intermolecular forces are the forces of attraction or repulsion between molecules, they are significantly weaker than intramolecular forces like covalent or ionic bonds.

Hydrogen bonds happen between a partially positively charged hydrogen and another partially negatively charged, it's a type of dipole-dipole interaction, one of the strongest among intermolecular forces.Ion-dipole involves an ion and polar molecule, its strength is proportional to the charge of the ion. It's stronger than hydrogen bonds because the ion and the polar molecule align so positive and negative charges are next to another allowing maximum attraction.Dipole-dipole is an interaction between two molecules that have permanent dipoles, aligning to increase attraction. Ion-dipole induced usually happens when a non-polar molecule interacts with an ion causing the molecule to be temporary partially charged. It's a weaker interaction.Dipole- Induced Dipole, like ion-dipole induced this interaction causes one of the two involved molecules to be temporary partially charged.

Considering this information we can conclude that Ion-Dipole interaction is the strongest force among intermolecular forces.
