Comparing the boiling points of the first four primary alcohols, which one will require the highest temperature to boil at 1 atm?
Q1. Comparing the boiling points of the first four primary alcohols, which one will require the highest temperature to boil at 1 atm?
Answer: Butan-1-ol
Explanation: Boiling points of alcohols increase with chain length due to increased London forces; butanol has a higher boiling point than propanol.
