Question

Consider the following substances 1. Propan-2-ol 2. Prpanone 3. 2-methyl propene The correct sequence of increasing order of boiling point is (A) 1 > 2 > 3 (B) 1 > 3 > 2 (C) 2 > 1 > 3 (D) 3 > 2 > 1

The high b.p. of the alcohol is due to intermolecular H-bonding. Carbonyl compounds and alkene have no H's for H-bonding. The dipole-dipole forces of carbonyl compounds cause them to have higher boiling points than alkene.

Hence, the correct sequence of increasing order of boiling point is 1 > 2 > 3.
