<p>Hey Dr. Pounds,</p>
<p>Can you explain ion-ion and induced dipole a little more in
depth?</p>
<p>Also, what type of questions should we be expecting for
multiple choice? Is it going to more problems just in multiple
choice form or more in-depth wordy type of questions?
</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Thank you</p>

<font face="serif">In an ion-ion scenario you have -- TWO IONS. If
it is attractive then one will have a positive charge and one will
have a negative charge.<br>
<br>
In the case of the induced dipole you will have either an ion or a
dipole interacting with something that, by itself, does not have
any "charge". In the examples I drew on the board for the item
that was having a charge induced upon itself was a noble gas with
a large number of electrons. When the noble gas atom came into
close proximity of either a ion or a dipole, the electrons
"shifted" under the influence of the small electric field. Since
the electrons changed their spacial distribution within the noble
gas atom, it too now exibits a small dipole that was induced.<br>
