  2. Intermolecular force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intermolecular_force

    Iondipole and ioninduced dipole forces are stronger than dipoledipole interactions because the charge of any ion is much greater than the charge of a dipole moment. Iondipole bonding is stronger than hydrogen bonding. [8] An iondipole force consists of an ion and a polar molecule interacting.

  3. Non-covalent interaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-covalent_interaction

    A dipole-induced dipole interaction (Debye force) is due to the approach of a molecule with a permanent dipole to another non-polar molecule with no permanent dipole. This approach causes the electrons of the non-polar molecule to be polarized toward or away from the dipole (or "induce" a dipole) of the approaching molecule. [13]

  4. Dipole - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dipole

    See induced-dipole attraction. More generally, an induced dipole of any polarizable charge distribution ρ (remember that a molecule has a charge distribution) is caused by an electric field external to ρ. This field may, for instance, originate from an ion or polar molecule in the vicinity of ρ or may be macroscopic (e.g., a molecule between ...

  5. Solvation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solvation

    Iondipole interactions; The van der Waals forces, which consist of dipoledipole, dipoleinduced dipole, and induced dipoleinduced dipole interactions. Which of these forces are at play depends on the molecular structure and properties of the solvent and solute.

  6. Polarizability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polarizability

    The polarizability of an atom or molecule is defined as the ratio of its induced dipole moment to the local electric field; in a crystalline solid, one considers the dipole moment per unit cell. [1] Note that the local electric field seen by a molecule is generally different from the macroscopic electric field that would be measured externally.

  7. Van der Waals force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Van_der_Waals_force

    The van der Waals forces [4] are usually described as a combination of the London dispersion forces between "instantaneously induced dipoles", [5] Debye forces between permanent dipoles and induced dipoles, and the Keesom force between permanent molecular dipoles whose rotational orientations are dynamically averaged over time.

  8. Inductive effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inductive_effect

    In Organic chemistry, the inductive effect in a molecule is a local change in the electron density due to electron-withdrawing or electron-donating groups elsewhere in the molecule, resulting in a permanent dipole in a bond. [1] It is present in a σ (sigma) bond, unlike the electromeric effect which is present in a π (pi) bond.

  9. Salt bridge (protein and supramolecular) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salt_bridge_(protein_and...

    In nonpolar solvents contact ion pairs with very high association constants are formed; [3] [4] in the gas phase the association energies of e.g. alkali halides reach up to 200 kJ/mol. [5] The Bjerrum or the Fuoss equation describe ion pair association as function of the ion charges zA and zB and the dielectric constant ε of the medium; a ...
