  1. Question 1

    Q1. The boiling point of alkyl halides increases with?

    • A) increase in molecular weight
    • B) decrease in molecular weight
    • C) increase in branching
    • D) decrease in polarity

    Answer: increase in molecular weight

    Explanation: Higher molecular weight alkyl halides have greater London dispersion forces, increasing their boiling points.
