### Boiling Point Comparison of Compounds

#### Instructions:
For each pair of compounds listed, check the box next to the one with the higher boiling point.

| Compounds                 | Higher Boiling Point |
|---------------------------|-----------------------|
| **Xe**                    | ⭕                    |
| **Kr**                    |                       |
|                           |                       |
| **CH₃(CH₂)₄CH₃**          | ⭕                    |
| **CH₃(CH₂)₂CH₃**          |                       |
|                           |                       |
| **GeF₄**                  | ⭕                    |
| **GeH₄**                  |                       |

### Explanation:
1. **Xe (Xenon) vs. Kr (Krypton)**:
   - Xenon (Xe) has a higher boiling point than Krypton (Kr).
   
2. **CH₃(CH₂)₄CH₃ (n-Hexane) vs. CH₃(CH₂)₂CH₃ (n-Butane)**:
   - n-Hexane has a higher boiling point than n-Butane.

3. **GeF₄ (Germanium Tetrafluoride) vs. GeH₄ (Germanium Tetrahydride)**:
   - Germanium Tetrafluoride (GeF₄) has a higher boiling point than Germanium Tetrahydride (GeH₄).
