Canvas Classes · Accepted Answer

Step 1 — Relative strengths of intermolecular/interionic forces:

| Force | Typical strength |
|-------|------------------|
| Ion–ion | Strongest (~100–1000 kJ/mol) |
| Ion–dipole | Intermediate (~10–50 kJ/mol) |
| Dipole–dipole | Weaker (~1–10 kJ/mol) |
| London dispersion | Weakest |

Step 2 — Decreasing order:
