✔✅The lower members of alcohols are highly soluble in water but the solubility decreases with increase in the molecular weight. The solubility of lower alcohols in water is due to formation of hydrogen bonds(Hydrogen bonding) between alcohols & water molecules.

Answer:
There is strong hydrogen bonding in alcohol molecules as well as water molecules.The intermolecular forces both in alcohol and water are H-bonds.When alcohol and water are mixed,they form solution because of formation of H-bonds between alcohol and H2O molecules but these interactions are weaker and less extensive than those in pure water.
I think will help you dear .
