Since oxygen has a higher electronegativity than nitrogen, the hydroxyl radical is more polar than the amide radical, and hence, creates a stronger electrostatic attraction between molecules and consequently a higher boiling point.

Which has a higher boiling point CH3CH3 or CH3NH2?

CH3NH2 has the higher boiling point as it has a hydrogen bond between the molecule which is a stronger intermolecular attractive force, whereas CH3CH3 only has covalent bonds which are weaker intermolecular attractive forces.


Why does Cu have a greater boiling point than methanol CH3OH?

Cu has a lower boiling point than CH3OH because its particles are less polar. the CH3OH molecules have to have more kinetic energy to break the bonds between them and the surrounding molecules.
