Given below are two statements.
Statement I: The boiling points of aldehydes and ketones are higher than hydrocarbons of comparable molecular masses because of weak molecular association in aldehydes and ketones due to dipole-dipole interactions.
Statement II: The boiling points of aldehydes and ketones are lower than the alcohols of similar molecular masses due to the absence of H -bonding.
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below. [NEET 2022]
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsD
Boiling point of comparable molecular mass molecules is as follows.
aldehyde-ketone 
alkane.
