Question

Which one of the following has higher boiling point? CH3CH2OCH3 or CH3CH2NHCH3. I'm still confused

Answer 1

I think CH3CH2NHCH3 has the higher boiling point. It has an amine group, which as a N-H bond. This allows hydrogen bonding between molecules to occur. CH3CH2OCH3 has weaker intermolecular bonds.

Answer 2

first look for hydrogen bonding, then the size of the molecule, then at polarity.

Answer 3

@Wariety is correct

Answer 4

I wasn't disagreeing with wariety I was simply giving a step by step way to approach these problems.

Answer 5

Didn't say you were - I agree with you too!

Answer 6

Cool deal
