Answer:

London dispersion forces

Explanation:

There are different forces of attraction that helps to hold atoms or Molecules of a particular substance together. Some of the forces of attraction are ionic/ electrovalent bond, covalent bond, vander waals forces of attraction and so on.

Under the vander waals forces of attraction we have what is known as the London dispersion forces. This force of attraction is a very weak and it is commonly found in the atoms of noble gases.

The intermolecular force of attraction in which we are talking about that is london dispersion forces is formed as a result of the formation of non-polar dipoles which are not permanent.

In a chemical equation, which symbol should be used to indicate that a substance is in solution?

lisov135 [29]

Example :

$2FeCl_3_{(aq)}+2KI_{(aq)}=2FeCl2_{(aq)}+2KCl_{(aq)}+I_2_{(s)}$

If you use the subscript (aq) (=aquaris) , this means that the substance is in a solution.

Subscripts:
-aq-this means that the substance is in a solution
-s-this means that the substance is a solid(or precipitate)
-l-this means that the substance is a liquid
-g-this means that the subtance is a gas
