Detailed Solution

Vander Waal forces are produced by electrostatic interactions between transient dipoles brought about by the motion of electrons in atoms and molecules. They only matter for atoms or molecules without any other intermolecular kinds of attraction. Van der Waals forces are therefore caused by instantaneous dipole-induced dipole interaction.

Hence, option A is correct.
