Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation: The given compounds in each group are to be ranked in the order of increasing strength of intermolecular forces.

Concept introduction: Intermolecular forces are also known as non-covalent interactions. The interactions present between molecules are known as intermolecular forces. A functional group present in a molecule decides the type of interaction. The increasing order of intermolecular force strength is as follows:

VanderWaals<DipoleDipole<Hydrogenbonding
