Of the following substances,________ has the highest boiling point. A)HOCH₂CH₂CH₂OH B)CH₃CH₂OH C)C₄H₁₀ D)N₂ E)Cl₂

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The molecule with the highest boiling point will have the strongest intermolecular forces, which are primarily caused by hydrogen bonding or dipole-dipole interactions. Choice A contains the most hydrogen bonding interactions due to the presence of multiple hydroxyl (OH) groups, which makes it the molecule with the highest boiling point in the list.
