Answer #1

Ans: a. Hydrogen bonds

      b. London forces

      d. dipole-dipole forces

Hydrogen bonding is present between -OH groups of two different hexanol molecules. Hydrogen bonding is the major force. Along with it London forces/dispersion forces play a minor role. Due to polar O-H bond dipoles are formed which attract other dipoles. So dipole-dipole forces also must be overcome for hexanol vaporization.
