How boiling point of C-X for the same alkyl group vary down the group ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Boiling point of C-X having same alkyl group and different halogen increases down the group that is RI > RBr > RCE > RF. This is due to increase in size and mass of halogen atom. As we move down the group, magnitude of van der Waal.s forces increases which increases the boiling point of C-X.
