Question
Chapter 3, Problem 47P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: The explanation corresponding to the given statement that benzene has a lower boiling point but much higher melting point than toluene is to be stated.
Concept introduction: Melting point and boiling point depends upon the intermolecular forces. Greater is the intermolecular forces, greater will be the boiling and melting point.
Intermolecular forces are also known as non-covalent interactions. The interactions present between molecules are known as intermolecular forces. A
Therefore, the increasing order of melting and boiling point is as follows:
