Induced Dipole

Postby Madison Hurst » Tue Nov 27, 2018 1:04 pm

Will nonpolar molecules always have induced dipole forces?

They will not always have induced dipoles, but induced dipoles and momentary dipole (London Dispersion Forces) are the only intermolecular force that nonpolar molecules can have.

Please correct me if I'm incorrect. Hope this helps.
