Question

Identify the kind(s) of intermolecular forces that would occur between the solute and solvent in an acetic acid (which is polar and contains an OHOH group) solution. Check all that apply. Check all that apply. dispersion hydrogen bonding ion-dipole dipole-dipole

Answer 1

Explanation:

The acetic acid is a polar compound. The polar molecules have a positive and negative extreme for this reason they are dipoles. The dipoles can attract other dipoles or ions. So, it can establish ion-dipole and dipole-dipole forces with the solute. In addition, acetic acid has a hydroxyl group that can interact with hydrogens or other very electronegative atoms (oxygen, nitrogen and fluor) forming hydrogen bridge junctions.
