Question

A strong type of dipole-dipole interaction is__________

Answer 1

Dipole-dipole interaction:

• Dipole-dipole interaction is a weak interaction that occurs when the partial positive charge gets attracted to the partial negative charge. It is also known as Van der Waal's interaction.
• Only a few elements can participate in the formation of hydrogen bonds, which is a strong sort of dipole-dipole interaction.
• A hydrogen atom that is bound to a highly electronegative atom and another highly electronegative atom that is close to interacting with one another to form hydrogen bonds, which are a unique kind of attractive intermolecular interaction. This process is known as hydrogen bonding.
• Consider the water molecule $\left({\mathrm{H}}_2\mathrm{O}\right)$: The more electronegative oxygen atom and hydrogen are joined covalently.
• Therefore, the dipole-dipole interactions between the hydrogen atom of one water molecule and the oxygen atom of another $\left({\mathrm{H}}_2\mathrm{O}\right)$ molecule cause hydrogen bonding to form in water molecules.

A strong type of dipole-dipole interaction is Hydrogen bonding.
