The strength of London forces depends on the size of:
Correct answer: B. Electronic cloud.
- A. Electrons.
- B. Electronic cloud.
- C. Lone pair on an atom.
- D. Poles of atoms
Explanation
The strength of London forces depends upon the size of the electronic cloud of the atom or molecules. When the size of the atom or molecule is big then the dispersion becomes easy and these forces end up being more prominent.

About Chemical Bonding
Chemical bonding explains molecular shape through VSEPR theory and distinguishes sigma bonds from pi bonds. Questions involve hybridization, bond angles, dipole moment and bond energy, including how electron-pair repulsion determines geometry and how bond polarity differs from the overall polarity of a molecule.
