Question

The predominant intermolecular forces present in ethyl acetate, a liquid, are: (A) London dispersion, dipole-dipole and hydrogen bonding (B) hydrogen bonding and London dispersion (C) Dipole-dipole and hydrogen bonding (D) London dispersion and dipole-dipole

Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

Ethyl acetate is polar molecule. Hence there will be dipole-dipole attraction and london dispersion forces are present.

Q. The predominant intermolecular forces present in ethyl acetate, a liquid, are:

hydrogen bonding and London dispersion

Dipole-dipole and hydrogen bonding

London dispersion and dipole-dipole

Ethyl acetate is polar molecule. Hence there will be dipole-dipole attraction and london dispersion forces are present.
