Interpretation:
The given compounds should be listed in the order of highest boiling to lowest boiling.
Concept introduction:
Boiling points: The every chemical compounds is the particular temperature at which its liquid from becomes a gas or (vaporizes). For a compound to vaporize, the forces that hold the individual molecules close to each other in the liquid must be overcome.
Than the boiling point of a each compound depends on the strength of the attractive forces between the individual molecules. If the molecules are held together by strong force then a great deal of energy will be need to pull the molecules away from each other and the compound will have a high boiling point.
On the other hand, if the molecules are held together by weak forces only a small of energy be need to pull the molecules away from each other and the compound will have a low boiling point.
Dipole interaction: The boiling points of all organic molecules like (ether,
