Question
The vapor pressure of diethyl ether is 400 mm Hg at 18.0 °C. From the plot of vapor pressures vs temperature above, estimate the temperature at which the vapor pressure of methanol is 400 mm Hg. °C The intermolecular forces in diethyl ether are than the intermolecular forces in methanol.

From the above graph the temperature at which the vapor pressure of methanol is 400 mm Hg at 50 .
The intermolecular forces in dimethyl ether are lesser than the methanol. In methanol due to hydrogen bonding the intermolecular forces are more and for the vaporization it requires more energy and high temperature to break this bonds. As a result methanol requires high temperature than the ether at same vapor pressure.
