Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) (C), (A), (D), (B)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Boiling points increase with increasing molecular weight due to stronger London dispersion forces. Molecular weights: \(CH_3Cl \(50.5 Increasing order of boiling points: (C), (A), (D), (B)
