Answer:

Phenol has the higher boiling point about 181.7 °C, because in phenol the -Oh group is attached to an unsaturated carbon atom due to which it forms stronger hydrogen bonding than the alcohols and so phenol is more soluble in water and need more energy to break the H-bonds which increases its boiling point
