(i) n-hexane and n-octane
(ii) I2 and CCl4
(iii) NaClO4 and water
(iv) methanol and acetone
(v) acetonitrile (CH3CN) and acetone (C3H6O).
Hint : Recal different types of intermolecular forces. London’s forces exist between the non-polar molecules, ionic interactions are found in ionic compound and dipole interactions are found in polar compounds. – OH, - NH or HF bond if present, the molecule can form H-bond.
