Kaolinite is stronger than all and doesn't swell made of 1:1 Aluminium and silica of size 7 Angstron A'.
You are wrong, Ionic bond is stronger than hydrogen bond.
Ionic bond>covalent bond>hydrogen bond> dipole-dipole bond> van der wall bond. Answer will be kaolinite as hydrogen bond is present in kaolinite, which is stronger then the ionic bond which is present in illite group.
