Chapter 14, Problem 14.38AP

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The molecule should be arranged according to boiling point of the given compound.

Concept introduction:

The molecular weight of the compound is increase the boiling point of the molecule is also increases. If the molecule contains hydrogen bond automatically the boiling point of the molecule is also increases.

Hydrogen bond:

The electrostatic attraction between a hydrogen atom and more electronegative atom such as nitrogen ($\text{N}$), oxygen ($\text{O}$), or fluorine ($\text{F}$), and another adjacent atom which is having lone pair of electrons.
