Organic: Haloalkanes and Haloarenes

Question:

If chloromethane has a boiling point of 250K, what will be the probable boiling point of methane?

Options:

250K

110K

315K

275K

Correct Answer:

110K

Explanation:

 Haloalkanes are polar in nature and have higher intermolecular forces of attraction in terms of dipole-dipole and van der Waal forces. Hence, the boiling points of haloalkanes are higher than their respective hydrocarbons.
