What type of intermolecular attractive interaction exists in the pair of methanol and acetone?

Open in App

Solution

The type of intermolecular attractive interaction present in the pair of methanol and acetone are intermolecular hydrogen bonds.
Hydrogen bonds are formed when H atom is attached to electronegative N, O or F atom. Thus, hydrogen bond is formed between H atom (attached to O atom of methanol) and O atom of acetone.
