Arrange each set of compounds in order of increasing boiling points.a. Bromomethane, Bromoform, Chloromethane, Dibromomethaneb. 1-Chloropropane, Isoproply chloride, 1-Chlorobutane
a. For the same alkyl group, boiling point increases with the increase in size of the halogen atom. Therefore, boiling point of bromomethane is more than that of chloromethane. Further, the boiling point increase in number of halogen atoms. Therefore, boiling point of bromoform is higher than that of dibromomethane, which is higher than that of bromomethane. Thus, the boiling point increases as:
Chloromethane < Bromomethane < Dibromomethane < Bromoform
b. For the same halogen, boiling...
