    Question

    ​Which of the following statements about the gradation of boiling point in a homologous series is correct?​

    A.

    ​The boiling points increase with increasing molecular mass​

    B.

    ​The boiling point does not depend on molecular mass​

    C.

    ​The boiling points increase with decreasing molecular mass​

    D.

    ​The boiling points decrease with increasing molecular mass​

    Correct option is A

    The correct answer is (A) The boiling points increase with increasing molecular mass.

    • Homologous Series: ​Any homologous sequence exhibits a gradation in physical attributes as the molecule mass rises.
    • This is due to the fact that when molecule mass increases, melting and boiling points also rise.
    • Similar gradations can be seen in other physical attributes like solubility in a particular solvent.
