Homework Statement
For the following molecules, predict the order of their boiling points from highest to lowest.
1. [tex]CH_{3}F[/tex]
2. [tex]C_{2}H_{6}[/tex]
3. [tex]CH_{3}OH[/tex]
4. [tex]C_{2}H_{4}[/tex]
The Attempt at a Solution
I think the answer is 3 4 2 1. I put 3 first because it is an alcohol and has hydrogen bonding. I put 4 second because it has a double bond. I put 2 third becuase although it has the same amount of electrons as [tex]CH_{3}F[/tex] it is a larger molecule. Am I correct?
