Consider the following liquids with similar molar masses. Predict which has the weakest intermolecular attraction based only on boiling point data.
butane (Bp @ 760 mm Hg = -0.5 °C)
ethyl chloride (Bp @ 760 mm Hg = 12 °C)
propyl alcohol (Bp @ 760 mm Hg = 97 °C)
acetic acid (Bp @ 760 mm Hg = 118 °C)
ethyl methyl ether (Bp @ 760 mm Hg = 11 °C)
