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.

Difference between methanol and ethanol?

Methanol is CH3OH, ethanol is CH3CH2OH. Both are alcohols, ethanol has one carbon more (or a CH2 group more) and is less polar than methanol. Also ethanol has higher boiling point than methanol.

Why does heptane have a higher boiling point than methanol?

Heptane has 7 carbon atoms. So it has a greater surface area than methanol. Therefor heptane has a higher boiling point.In general, all else being equal the higher the molecular weight, the higher the boiling point. The molecular weight of methanol is 32, the molecular weight of heptane is 100. So, ignoring everything but that, you'd expect heptane to have a higher boiling point than methanol.A better question might be "why is the boiling point of methanol so much higher than that of ethane, which has a similar molecular weight (30)?" The answer to that is hydrogen bonding.
