CHM 115 - Lecture 22 Inter-molecular Forces and Formation of Solutions
Intermolecular Forces
● Intermolecular forces are the forces of attraction and repulsion between
molecules
● Many intermolecular forces involve dipoles and induced dipoles
○ An induced dipole is when the electron distribution in a non-polar
molecule or atom is polarized by a nearby polar or charged species
