Q:

Which of the following chemical compounds has the highest boiling point?

A) Dimethyl ether (CH3OCH3)	B) Methanol (CH3OH)
C) Methane (CH4)	D) None

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) Methanol (CH3OH)

Explanation:

Chemical Compounds with stronger intermolecular forces have higher boiling points.

The order of strengths of intermolecular forces is:

London dispersion < dipole-dipole < H-bonding

${Methane (CH}_{4)}$ — London dispersion forces

${Dimethyl ether (CH}_{3} {OCH}_{3)}$ — dipole-dipole attractions

${Methanol (CH}_{3} OH)$ — hydrogen bonding

Therefore, ${Methanol -}$ ${CH}_{3} OH$ $with H-Bonding have highest Boiling Point among the given chemical compounds.$
