Q. Which one of the following is not correct order of boiling points of the alkyl/aryl halides?

Haloalkanes and Haloarenes

Solution:

$(CH_3)_3CCl > (CH_3)_2CHCH_2Cl$ is not correct as boiling point of $(CH_3)_3CCl$ is smaller than $(CH_3)_2CHCH_2Cl$. It is due to large surface area and shorter alkyl chain.
