between aldehyde and ketone who have the more stronger intermolecular forces
Added by Ellah S.
Step 1
This means they both have dipole-dipole interactions, which are relatively strong intermolecular forces. However, aldehydes have a hydrogen atom attached to the carbonyl group, while ketones have two alkyl groups attached to the carbonyl group. This means that Show more…
