engineering chemistry MCQ #4

  1. Question 1

    Q1. The boiling point of ethers is lower than their isomeric alcohols due to

    • A) Hydrogen bonding
    • B) Lack of hydrogen bonding
    • C) High molecular weight
    • D) Low molecular weight

    Answer: Lack of hydrogen bonding

    Explanation: Ethers lack hydrogen bonding, which is present in alcohols, resulting in lower boiling points for ethers compared to their isomeric alcohols.
