Question
what kind of intermolecular forces act between a methanol (ch3oh) molecule and an ammonia molecule? note: if there is more than one type of intermolecular force that acts, be sure to list them all, with a comma between the name of each force.
Methanol ($CH_3OH$) has a polar - OH group and ammonia ($NH_3$) has a polar - NH group. Both can form hydrogen bonds due to the presence of hydrogen attached to highly electronegative atoms (O in methanol and N in ammonia). Also, all molecules exhibit London dispersion forces.
