Consider the following molecules and statements related to them : 
(a) (B) is more likely to be crystalline than (A)
(b) (B) has higher boiling point than (A)
(c) (B) dissolves more readily than (A) in water
Identify the correct option from below :
(a) (B) is more likely to be crystalline than (A)
(b) (B) has higher boiling point than (A)
(c) (B) dissolves more readily than (A) in water
Identify the correct option from below :
Multiple Choice Options
- A only (a) is true
- B (a), (b) and (c) are true
- C (b) and (c) are true
- D (a) and (b) are true
Step-by-Step Verified Solution
(a) B will be more crystalline due to more inter molecular interactions hence more efficient packing.
(b) B will have higher boiling point due to higher intermolecular interactions.
(c) B will be more soluble in water than A as B will have more extent of H-bonding in water.
