Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The strongest noncovalent interactions are
A
ionic interactions.
B
hydrogen bonds.
C
dipole-dipole interactions.
D
London dispersion forces.
E
van der Waals forces.
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The ion-ion, dipole-dipole, and ion-dipole interactions between oppositely charged particles is the strongest non-covalent bond.

Detailed explanation-2: -The strongest type of non-covalent interaction is between two ionic groups of opposite charge (an ion-ion or charge-charge interaction).

Detailed explanation-3: -So, in conclusion the ionic bonds are strongest among ionic, covalent and hydrogen bonds.

Detailed explanation-4: -There are three principle kinds of noncovalent forces: ionic interactions. hydrophobic interactions. hydrogen bonds.

Detailed explanation-5: -Sigma bonds are the strongest covalent chemical bonds. Sigma bonds also occur when an s and a p orbital share a pair of electrons or when two p orbitals that are parallel to the internuclear axis share a pair of electrons (see Figure 3-4).
