Q. Hydration of different ions in aqueous solution is an example of
A) Ion – induced dipole interaction
B) Dipole - dipole interaction
C) Dipole – induced dipole interaction
D) Ion – dipole interaction
Explanation
(d)
During hydration of ions in aqueous solution, there exists an attractive force between ions and water molecules, which are polar in nature and acts as dipole. So, hydrogen of ions in aqueous solution is an example ion-dipole interaction.
