NEET 2022 Chemistry question

Given below are two statements : Statement I : The boiling points of aldehydes and ketones are higher than hydrocarbons of comparable molecular masses because of weak molecular association in aldehydes and ketones due to dipole - dipole interactions. Statement II : The boiling points of aldehydes and ketones are lower than the alcohols of similar molecular masses due to the absence of H-bonding. In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below :

• (A)Statement I is incorrect but Statement II is correct
• (B)Both Statement I and Statement II are correctCorrect
• (C)Both Statement I and Statement II are incorrect
