Answer

YES

The final answer is YES

Answer for screen readers

The final answer is YES

More Information

Methanol (CH3OH) can form hydrogen bonds due to the presence of an O-H bond. The oxygen atom being highly electronegative creates a significant dipole, allowing the hydrogen atoms attached to oxygen to form hydrogen bonds with other molecules.
