The intermolecular forces of attraction in a substance with a higher melting point are the intermolecular forces of attraction in a substance with a lower melti class=

Respuesta :

Answer:

Weaker than

Explanation:

» Take an example of ethanol and water. Water has lower melting point [ 0°C ] than ethanol [ -114°C ]. So, when water and ethanol are under freezing, water will freeze first then ethanol later. This means water has stronger intermolecular forces of attraction which are easily interacted together.
