Question

Arrange the following compounds in increasing order of their boiling points
CH3CHO,CH3CH2OH, CH3OCH3, CH3CH2CH3​

Answer 1

hope you understand this

Answer 2

Answer:

here is the answer

Explanation:

The molecular masses of the given compounds are in the range 44 to 46. CH3CH2OH undergoes extensive intermolecular H-bonding, resulting in the association of molecules. Therefore, it has the highest boiling point. CH3CHO is more polar than CH3OCH3 and so CH3CHO has stronger intermolecular dipole − dipole attraction than CH3OCH3 CH3CH2CH3 has only weak van der Waals force. Thus, the arrangement of the given compounds in the increasing order of their boiling points is given by: CH3CH2CH3 < CH3OCH3 < CH3CHO < CH3CH2OH
