Question

Explain hy prponaol hase higher boiling point then ethnutane

Answer 1

Here is your answer :

Propanol undergoes intermolecular H-bonding because of the presence of -OH group. On the other hand, butane does not.

Therefore, extra energy is required to break hydrogen bonds. For this reason, propanol has a higher boiling point than hydrocarbon butane.
