Arrange the following in the increasing order of their boiling points :
`C_(2)H_(5)OH, underset(OH)underset(|)(CH_(2))-underset(OH)underset(|)(CH_(2)),underset(OH)underset(|)(CH_(2))-underset(OH)underset(|)(CH_(2))-underset(OH)underset(|)(CH_(2))`

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To arrange the compounds in the increasing order of their boiling points, we need to analyze the number of hydroxyl (OH) groups present in each compound, as the boiling point is influenced by the extent of hydrogen bonding, which is stronger with more OH groups. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Compounds**: - Compound 1: Ethanol (C₂H₅OH) - has 1 OH group. - Compound 2: A diol (HO-CH₂-CH(OH)-CH₂-OH) - has 2 OH groups. - Compound 3: A triol (HO-CH₂-CH(OH)-CH₂-CH(OH)-CH₂-OH) - has 3 OH groups. ...
