Is it true that London dispersion forces exist between all molecules?
Yes. Two textbook sources state directly that London dispersion forces exist between all molecules, and a chemistry education paper likewise describes them as acting between all molecular species. Other sources describe dispersion forces as present between atoms and molecules generally, supporting but not fully stating the universal claim.
