Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The correct option why alcohols have higher boiling point than alkanes of similar molecular mass has to be identified from the given options.

Concept Introduction:

Alcohol is an organic compound that has hydroxyl as its functional group.  Alcohols contain both nonpolar and polar groups in it.  Hydroxyl group is the polar group and the alkyl group is the nonpolar group.  Physical properties of alcohol depend on which of the two groups dominate.
