Answer #1

When LiBr is in solution it gets dissociated into Li+ ion and Br- ion

Each ion is individually wrapped in a cage of water molecules.

The positive Li+ io surrounded by Oxygen atom of water.

(Because the partial negative charge is over oxygen due to its electronegative nature over the hydrogen and forms a dipole)

The Cl- ion is surrounded by H atoms of water. ( Partial positive charge is located over the water molecules less electropositive nature)

Therefore it is called Ion-dipole Intermolecular forces.
