Which consequence results when molecular packing increases within a crystal?

💡 Explanation

Increased molecular packing raises density. Resulting shorter intermolecular distances amplify correlated fluctuations in electron distributions establishing induced dipoles leading to stronger London dispersion forces, because tighter packing reduces average separation; therefore, the London forces increase rather than weaken other bonds.
