What happens to a sulfate ion floating around in a beaker containing a solution with the stoichiometric amount of copper(II) sulfate, in terms of Location , Charge , Did it lose or gain electrons, or no change?, Where did the electrons go to or come from, or no change? , Color , Physical state , and are there any particles surrounded by it.

i believe the answer is three water molecules

intermolecular forces are the forces between molecules or particles.

there are two kinds of van der waals forces: weak london dispersion forces and stronger dipole-dipole forces.

in molecule of water there are dipole-dipole forces between negatively charged oxygen from one molecule of water and positively charger hydrogen of another molecule of water.

hydrogen bond is an electrostatic attraction between two polar groups that occurs when a hydrogen atom (h), covalently bound to a highly electronegative atom such as flourine (f), oxygen (o) and nitrogen (n) atoms.
