The relative strength of inter-ionic/ intermolecular forces in the decreasing order is :

Answer»

ion-dipole `gt` dipole-dipole `gt` ion-ion 
dipole-dipole `gt` ion-dipole `gt` ion-ion 
ion-ion `gt` ion-dipole `gt` dipole-dipole 
ion-dipole `gt` ion-ion `gt` dipole-dipole 

SOLUTION :Ion-ion interactions are stronger because they have stronger electrostatic forces of attraction WHEREAS DIPOLES have PARTIAL CHARGES and hence the electrostatic forces in their case would be relatively weak.
