Ion-dipole attractions are stronger than dipole-dipole attractions because why?

ion-dipole attractions are stronger because they have a larger charge. the bigger the charge, the stronger the attractive force. induced dipole-induced dipole as weak Van der Waal's forces and even smaller charge....less than 1 usually, hence weaker.

∙ 14y agoAn ion has a charge of at least +1 or -1, sometimes more (2 or 3, plus or minus) whereas a dipolar molecule such as water has only a fractional charge at either pole, not as much as +1 or -1, because the polarity is the result of an electron cloud that is somewhat more attracted to one part of the molecule than to other parts, as compared to an ion in which electrons have actually been lost or gained in their entirety.

Ion-dipole attractions are stronger than dipole-dipole attractions because?
Because ions are a whole 1+ or 2-, whereas dipoles are "a little bit (-) or a little bir (+)." So the stronger the charge, the stronger the attraction for the opposite charge.And that an Ion has a much bigger electrical charge there fore it attracts with more strenght than a dipole.
Is Jupiter stronger or weaker?
Because it's the biggest planet, probably stronger.
Why is horse hair stronger than human hair?
because horses are stronger than us
What is the difference in the strength of attractions between polar as nonpolar molecules?
No. A polar molecule (such as water) has partial positive and negative charges at each end, but these partial charges balance out to zero overall, leaving the molecule as a whole neutral. This is due to electrons being shared unevenly be the atoms in the molecule. A "charged molecule" would not be called a molecule. It would be called a polyatomic ion. A polyatomic ions has an overall net charge due to there being a different number of protons and electrons.
Which is stronger neap or spring tide?
Spring tides are stronger because they occur when the sun moon and earth are lined up in a straight line causing a stronger force on earth's tides.

Is the attraction in particles stronger in liquids then solids?
Forces of attraction have a stronger effect on the behavior of liquid particles.
Explain how could attractions between molecules could cause water to have a higher boiling point than carbon dioxide?
It takes more energy to break the bonds because they are stronger.
Are polar molecules stronger than non- polar molecules?
Yes. In polar bonds, electrons between atoms are shared unequally. The more electronegative atom has a high electron affinity, pulling the shared electron (and ajacent atom) closer to it, creating a shorter, stronger bond.
Why are covalent bonds stronger than the electricalatraction between two neighboring molecules?
A covalent bond is a chemical bond formed by the sharing of electrons within the molecule. Attractions between molecules are relatively weak because there is no formation of a chemical bond.
