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.
