Detailed Solution

Intermolecular forces are forces that exist between the molecules of a substance. The type of intermolecular forces that will exist between the molecules of a material depends on the nature of atom to atom bonding in that substance. All substances exhibit dispersion forces. In addition to dispersion forces, polar molecules like H2O2 and CH2Cl2.
Also, have a dipole-dipole interaction between their molecules. Hydrogen bonds, in addition to dispersion forces and dipole-dipole interaction, are present in compounds when hydrogen is linked to an atom of a strongly electronegative element, such as 1−butene−4−ol.

Hence, the correct option is c.
