Ion-dipole interaction (dipole-ion interaction): A noncovalent attraction between one pole of a bond dipole and an oppositely-charged ion. The Î´+ end of the bond dipole is attracted to an anion, and the Î´- end of the bond dipole is attracted to a cation.
Electroweak interaction. In particle physics, the electroweak interaction is the unified description of two of the four known fundamental interactions of nature: electromagnetism and the weak interaction. Although these two forces appear very different at everyday low energies, the theory models them as two different aspects of the same force.
