Question

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) attractive dispersion forces between atoms

Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

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, hydration of ions in aqueous solution is an example of ion-dipole interaction.
