Step1: Analyze the polarity of molecules
Both \( \ce{H2S} \) and \( \ce{H2O} \) are polar molecules. \( \ce{H2O} \) has a bent molecular geometry with a significant dipole moment due to the electronegativity difference between O and H. \( \ce{H2S} \) also has a bent geometry (similar to \( \ce{H2O} \) in terms of molecular shape, though S is less electronegative than O), and it is a polar molecule because of the electronegativity difference between S and H.
Step2: Determine the intermolecular force
Since both molecules are polar, the intermolecular force between them is dipole - dipole interaction. Dipole - dipole forces occur between polar molecules, where the positive end of one dipole is attracted to the negative end of another dipole.
