In the molecule on the left, areas that have a partial negative charge are pink and areas that have a partial positive charge ar
e blue. The molecule on the right is nonpolar. What will most likely happen when these molecules get closer? The molecules will repel each other because of a dipole-dipole interaction. The molecules will attract each other because of a dipole-dipole interaction. An induced dipole will be produced in the molecule on the right. An induced dipole will be produced in the molecule on the left.
Answer : Option C) An induced dipole will be produced in the molecule on the right.
Explanation : As per the given information there is a polar molecule which is placed on the left side which has partial positive charge at one end and on other end has partial negative charge which shows that it has a dipole in it. It tries to induce the non-polar molecule which is at right side. So, there will be an induce dipole interaction between both when they are placed closer to each other.
I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is the last option. When these molecules get closer, most likely an <span> induced dipole will be produced in the molecule on the left. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.</span>
