Text Solution

Verified by Experts
The correct answer is:
C

Ethyl alcohol forms stronger H - bonds than ethyl amine or ammonia due to greater

electronegativity of oxygen than nitrogen atom. Diethyl ether, however, does not form H -bonds, since it does not have a H -atom attached to any highly electronegative atom.
