    Answer: -

    Acetic acid

    Explanation: -

    The intermolecular force of attraction depends on the strength or extent of Hydrogen bonding present in a substance.

    Benzene and chloroform does not have hydrogen bonding being non polar molecule.

    Water has hydrogen bonding being polar.

    However acetic acid being most polar has the maximum hydrogen bonding.

    Thus acetic acid has the strongest intermolecular forces of attraction.
