Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To arrange the compounds `CH₃CH₂CH₂CH₂OH` (butanol), `CH₃CH₂COCH₃` (butan-2-one), and `CH₃CH₂OCH₂CH₃` (diethyl ether) in increasing order of their boiling points, we need to consider the types of intermolecular forces present in each compound. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Compounds**: - `CH₃CH₂CH₂CH₂OH` is butanol (an alcohol). - `CH₃CH₂COCH₃` is butan-2-one (a ketone). - `CH₃CH₂OCH₂CH₃` is diethyl ether (an ether). ...
