Answer:
➡️Ethanol undergoes intermolecular H-bonding due to the presence of -OH group, resulting in the association of molecules.
➡️Extra energy is required to break these hydrogen bonds.
➡️On the other hand, methoxymethane does not undergo H-bonding.
➡️Hence, the boiling point of ethanol is higher than that of methoxymethane.
