Question

the strongest type of intermolecular force in a sample of ch₃oh is _____________.
covalent
dipole
london
ionic
hydrogen bonding

Explanation:

Intermolecular forces are attractions between molecules. Covalent and ionic bonds are intramolecular (within molecules), so they are excluded. London forces are weak dispersion forces, dipole forces are moderate, but CH₃OH has an -OH group where hydrogen is bonded to oxygen (electronegative atom), enabling hydrogen bonding—the strongest intermolecular force here.

Answer:

hydrogen bonding
