The substances which will exist in molecular form in solution are-

A. CH₃NH₂

D. CH₃OH

The methyl amine (CH₃NH₂) and methanol (CH₃OH) is organic compounds which are hardly become ionic in nature and prefers to form as molecular state in the solution phase.

On the other hand B. LiOH and C. NH₄OH are inorganic compound and highly ionic in nature and remain as ionic state in solution.

Those are-

LiOH (s) → Li⁺(s) + OH⁻ (s)

NH₄OH→ NH₄⁺ (s) + OH⁻ (s)
