(a)
Interpretation:
The given set of compounds has to be arranged in the increasing order of boing point.
Concept introduction:
The boiling points of carboxylic acids are higher than those of alcohol or
Intermolecular hydrogen bonding will increase the boiling point of an organic compound.
Carboxylic acids can form dimers in which hydrogen bonds form between two carboxyl groups this will also increase their boiling point.
Increasing order of boiling point of some organic compounds with similar molecular weight is shown below,
The better hydrogen bond capability of a molecule will increase its boiling points.
(b)
Interpretation:
The given set of compounds has to be arranged in the increasing order of boing point.
Concept introduction:
The boiling points of carboxylic acids are higher than those of alcohol or aldehydes of similar relative molecular mass due to intermolecular hydrogen bonding.
Carboxylic acids can form dimers in which hydrogen bonds form between two carboxyl groups this will also increase their boiling point.
Intermolecular hydrogen bonding will increase the boiling point of an organic compound.
Increasing order of boiling point of some organic compounds with similar molecular weight is shown below,
The better hydrogen bond capability of a molecule will increase its boiling points.
