What are dispersion forces (also called London dispersion forces or van der Waals forces)?

A.Weak, temporary attractions that arise from momentary, random fluctuations in electron distribution, creating temporary dipoles; present in both polar and nonpolar moleculesB.Strong electrostatic attractions between oppositely charged ions arranged in a fixed lattice structureC.The energy change that occurs when an atom in the gaseous state gains an electron to form a negative ionD.Permanent dipole-dipole attractions that occur only between molecules containing highly electronegative atoms like N, O, or F
