Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To arrange propan-1-ol, propan-2-ol, and methoxyethane in increasing order of their boiling points, we need to consider the structural characteristics and the types of intermolecular forces present in each compound. ### Step 1: Identify the Structures 1. **Propan-1-ol (1-propanol)**: The structure is CH3-CH2-CH2-OH. This is a straight-chain alcohol. 2. **Propan-2-ol (2-propanol)**: The structure is CH3-CHOH-CH3. This is a branched alcohol. 3. **Methoxyethane (ethyl methyl ether)**: The structure is CH3-CH2-O-CH3. This is an ether. ### Step 2: Analyze Intermolecular Forces ...
