Answer: London dispersion forces of molecular attraction is the weakest.
Explanation:
The forces which exist between neighboring atoms, molecules or ions can be force of attraction or force of repulsion. These forces are called intermolecular forces.
When ions with same charge come in contact with each other then force of repulsion is there but when ions with opposite charge comes in contact with each other then force of attraction will be there.
These forces are described as follows.
London dispersion forces: The electrostatic attraction between atoms or molecules causes a temporary induced charge on the respective atoms. These attractive forces are weak in nature and called London dispersion forces.
Hydrogen bond: When a hydrogen atom is attached to electronegative atom like fluorine, nitrogen and oxygen then bonding between these atoms is called a hydrogen bond.
Dipole-dipole interaction: When positive end of one polar molecule gets attracted by the negative end of another polar molecule then force existing between these ends is called dipole-dipole interaction.
Single covalent bond: When an atom is sharing its valence electrons with another atom then it is called a covalent bond.
Thus, we can conclude that London dispersion forces of molecular attraction is the weakest.
