which interaction is responsible for the force of attraction between the particles in a salt crystal?\no…

Brief Explanations:

In a salt crystal, the particles are ions. The force of attraction between ions is due to electrostatic forces. Protons are positively - charged and electrons are negatively - charged. The proton - electron interaction is responsible for the electrostatic attraction that holds the ions together in a salt crystal. Proton - proton and electron - electron interactions are repulsive (like - charges repel), and neutron - electron interactions do not contribute to the ionic bonding in salts as neutrons are neutral.

Answer:

proton - electron
