Question

Ethanol and dimethyl ether form a pair of functional isomers. The boiling point of ethanol is higher than that of dimethyl ether, due to the presence of:

विकल्प

• H-bonding in ethanol

• H-bonding in dimethyl ether

• CH₃ group is ethanol

• CH₃ group in dimethyl ether

Answer 1

H-bonding in ethanol

Explanation:

The boiling point of ethanol is higher than that of dimethyl ether due to presence of intermolecular hydrogen bonding in ethanol.
