An equimolar liquid mixture of hexane (C₆H₁₄) and propan-1-ol (C₃H₇OH) is heated under 1.0 atm in a simple distillation apparatus. Which substance is most likely to be collected first in the receiving flask, and primarily because it exhibits what dominant type of intermolecular interaction?
(a) Hexane; hydrogen bonding
(b) Propan-1-ol; hydrogen bonding
(c) Hexane; London dispersion forces
(d) Propan-1-ol; London dispersion forces
