MHT CET 2026 Chemistry question
Which from the following is a correct decreasing order of boiling points for following organic compounds ?
Answer: (B)
Solution
For compounds of comparable molar mass, boiling point depends on intermolecular forces. Carboxylic acids form strong hydrogen-bonded dimers (highest), alcohols form intermolecular hydrogen bonds (next), ketones have stronger dipole-dipole attractions than aldehydes because of the two
