H H -С. H-C C-H C=C H H 21. Benzene, C6H6, has the structure shown above. Considering the observation that benzene is only sparingly soluble in water, which of the following best describes the intermolecular forces of attraction between water and benzene? (A) Benzene is nonpolar, therefore there are no forces between water and benzene. (B) The H atoms in benzene form hydrogen bonds with the O atoms in water. (C) Benzene is hydrophobic, therefore there is a net repulsion between water and benzene. (D) There are dipole-induced dipole and London dispersion interactions between water and benzene.
