Question

The influence of permanent electrical dipole in dipole-Induced Dipole forces

• A. Does not depend on the size of the molecule
• B. Decreases with the decrease in size of the molecule
• C. Increases with the increase in size of the molecule
• D. Depend on the ionic radii

Answer 1

The correct option is C

Increases with the increase in size of the molecule

Induced dipole moment depends upon the dipole moment of the permanent dipole and the polarizability of the electrically neutral molecule. As the size of molecule or atom increase, the influence of permanent electrical dipole on it also increases.
