Concept introduction:
Intermolecular forces are considered as the forces that exist between the atoms, molecules and ions. These forces are attractive as well as repulsive in nature. The bonding in which the hydrogen atom is directly attached to an electronegative atom is known as hydrogen bonding.
Answer to Problem 1CE
