How may a dipole moment be induced in an uncharged body? Well, if the uncharged body is metallic, then once placed in an electric field, the free electrons are attracted to one end of the metal, leaving an excess of positive charge at the other end; this induces a dipole moment.

The three major types of intermolecular interactions are dipole–dipole interactions, London dispersion forces (these two are often referred to collectively as van der Waals forces), and hydrogen bonds.
