London dispersion forces are dependent on the motion of electrons, their strength increases with the number of electrons in the interacting atoms or molecules. This means that London forces increase as the atomic or molar mass increases.
Yes, hydrogen bonding may be the strongest force but dispersion forces (London dispersion) increases strength in bonds with size. The greater size the greater strength. Therefore, if you have a huge carbon molecule the forces might be stronger than the H-bond.
Hydrogen bonding and London Dispersion forces (the latter of which are in all molecules).
yes, CH4 has London dispersion forces because it is a non-polar molecule and non-polar molecules have London dispersion forces present in them. there are no other forces present in CH4.

The only intermolecular forces in this long hydrocarbon will be dispersion forces.
London dispersion forces
strength = molar mass = number of electrons
Dipole-Dipole and covalent sigma bond forces.
HYDRO the whole question is to order the following inter molecular forces by increasing strength of bonds: covalent bonds ionic bonds- london dispersion forces dipolar forces hydrogen bonds metallic bonds
