Intermolecular forces and boiling point

[Samson4]

I've come to understand that intermolecular forces cause the boiling point of hydrochloric acid solutions below 20% to be higher than the boiling point of water. I also understand that dissolving hcl in water is an exothermic reaction. But, what about those intermolecular forces. I assume they are dipole interactions.

My question: If ions in an electrolyte like hydrochloric acid are made to collect on a charged surface, will they absorb heat when the charged surface is grounded? I think they will because, as they spread out and homogenize, they will reform the interactions that require heat to break. Is this correct?

Come again? "Absorb heat when the charged surface is grounded?"

When a conductor is charged in an electrolyte; ions move towards the conductor. When the conductor is grounded, the ions disperse in the electrolyte. I am asking if thermal energy is needed for the ions to disperse and establish intermolecular forces.
