With the molecular formula C4H8O , I ask you to draw 3 molecules: an aldehyde, a ketone and an enol. For each molecule, you must: a)  Complete detailed Lewis structure; b)  Make the 3D structure respecting the connection angles; c) Determine which intermolecular interactions are present if you glue 2 twin molecules together (2 aldehydes together, 2 ketones together, 2 enols together, therefore 3 situations to analyze).
