Answer:

c for sure is the right answer

Explanation:

please mark me as brainliest

Answer 2

Option d) Ketones ​ have a greater boiling point than alcohol

Explanation:

• Compounds like aldehydes and ketones have greater boiling points than alcohols.
• Aldehydes and ketones are Esters which are polar molecules.
• In these alcohols dipole-dipole interactions are weaker than that of aldehydes and ketones
• They are unable to form hydrogen bonds.
• So the boiling points are lower than aldehydes and ketones of similar size.
• And the boiling points are higher than that of ethers
• Ketones have higher boiling points than their isomeric aldehydes due to the presence of two electrons which helps in releasing groups around carbonyl carbon
• They make them more polar compared to others.
