Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The molecules CH3OH (methanol) and H2O (water) can engage in dispersion forces, dipole-dipole interactions, and hydrogen bonding. Methanol has a polar O-H bond allowing for dipole-dipole interactions and hydrogen bonding with water, which also has polar O-H bonds. Both molecules also exhibit dispersion forces due to temporary dipoles.
