okaaay maaayne it is either... umm.. ion-dipole, hydrogen bonding, dipole-dipole, dipole-induced dipole, or London dispersion forces...i personally would choose the dipole-dipole one because it sounds pretty awesome to me.
The main force responsible is the hydrogen bonding with the oxygen atoms and hydrogen atoms of water. This effect is a bit less due to the fact that oxygen in the carbon dioxide is only slightly polarized. So carbon dioxide does not dissolve that much in water.
Pretty much the only intermolcular force holding molecules of CO2 together would be dispersion forces. There are no hydrogen bonds, nor are there any dipole-dipole attractions, as CO2 is linear.
The intermolecular forces in C02 (Carbon dioxide) are the weak van der waal forces which result in Carbon Dioxide being found as a gas at room temperature.
Dispersion/London forces are the only intermolecular forces that exist in carbon dioxide, because CO2 is nonpolar based on Lewis structures.
The strongest I.M.f present b/w CO2 is ion induced forces. It means that highle electronegative oxygen attracts the low electro negative carbon towards it hence creating partial charges

Butane is a nonpolar molecule that has dispersion forces
These are polar forces, intermolecular forces of attraction between molecules.
Dipole forces and London forces are present as intermolecular forces in these molecules.
London/Van der Waal's/Dispersion forces. Carbon tetrachloride has no dipole, no hydrogen bonding, and is not ionic.

water
Butane is a nonpolar molecule that has dispersion forces
The solubility of these non-polar gases depends mostly on London dispersion forces between the water molecules and the gas molecules. Since carbon dioxide is larger (has a higher molecular weight) than methane, it is more polarizable and it therefore has stronger intermolecular forces with water. The strength of intermolecular forces (forces between molecules) is directly related to the solubility of any substance in water.

These are polar forces, intermolecular forces of attraction between molecules.
The carbon dioxide is infused into all soft drinks containing it. There is a process that forces CO2 into these drinks.
Dipole forces and London forces are present as intermolecular forces in these molecules.
It has a low boiling point because it has weak intermolecular forces in its covalent bonds
Dispersion forces only, because it's non-polar.
