Yes it can, and this is the reason for alcohol having a higher boiling point than both alkanes and ethers.

Acetone molecules H-bond with other acetones?

I would say that, based on the molecular formula (CH3COCH3), the intermolecular forces are London Dispersion forces (of course) as well as dipole-dipole forces since there is a dipole moment due to the electronegativitiy of the oxygen.


Is acetone an ionic or covalent compound?

No. The hydrogen in acetone only bonds with carbon, and not with the oxygen. In order to form hydrogen bonds a bond hydrogen must bond with with nitrogen, oxygen, or fluorine.


How do bonds form between water molecules?

The bond between water molecules is known as a hydrogen bond.


Can hydrogen and oxygen form an ionic bond?

No, hydrogen and oxygen do not form an ionic bond. They typically form a covalent bond when they combine to make water (H2O). In this bond, they share electrons instead of transferring them.


What type of bond is formed between two water molecule?

the bond between two water molecule is hydrogen bond.


Which type of bond is responsible for water's cohesion and which atoms interact to form this bond?

A hydrogen bond between the oxygen of one water molecule and the hydrogen of another water molecule.


What kind of bond dose water form with each other?

hydrogen bond


What type bond do water molecules form with each other?

Hydrogen Bond


What molecule is oxidized and what kind of bond is formed when gaseous hydrogen burns in the presence of oxygen to form water?

In this reaction, hydrogen (H2) is oxidized to form water (H2O), and a covalent bond is formed between hydrogen and oxygen atoms in water.


Why do some liquids are immiscible with water?

not form hydrogen bond


What do hydrogen ions form when they bond to water?

Hydronium ions


Is hydrogen oxygen an ionic bond or a covalent bond?

Hydrogen and oxygen form a covalent bond when they combine to form water (H2O). In a covalent bond, atoms share electrons to achieve a stable configuration. An ionic bond involves the transfer of electrons from one atom to another, which does not occur in the case of hydrogen and oxygen in water.
