It is due to the strong hydrogen bonding in the hydroxyl groups of the ethanol. Since the molecules of ethanol are held together more strongly than acetone, it requires more energy to change ethanol into a gas.

∙ 12y agoThe boiling point of ethyl alcohal(Ethanol) is due to hydrogen bonding present in it.in diethyl ether,no hydrogen atom is linked with any electronegetive element and hydrogen bonding does not exist.
Wiki User
∙ 12y agoDue to 'OH' group in ethanol the hydrogen bonding is responsible for high attractive force among the molecules and high boiling point, in case of ethanal (Acetaldehyde) the hydrogen bonding or secondary bonding is not very strong so it has low boiling point.

Boiling point ethanol?
78.3 degrees Celsius is the boiling point of ethanol.
Why does the boiling point of methylated spirits drop?
The boiling point of methanol is lower than the boiling point of ethanol.
Is alcohol solution boiling point higher or lower than salt solution?
Lower. The boiling point of ethanol is 78 degrees C. Adding salt to water raises the boiling point of that solution above 100 degrees C.
What effect does ethanol have on the boiling point of water?
The pure ethanol has the boiling point 78.5 celsius while water has 100 celsius so when water is added to ethanol its boiling point becomes increased.
What happens if boiling point is higher than melting point?
The boiling point is always higher than the melting point.
Ethanol c2h5oh and methyl ether ch3och3 have the same molar mass.W hich has a higher boiling point?
ethanol has a higher boiling point- of 78°C :)
Which has higher boiling point oxygen or ethanol?
Oxygen.
Why ethanol has higher boiling point than diethyl ether?
Ethanol has hydrogen bond where as ether does not.
Does ethanol has the lower boiling point?
It depends what chemical or compound you are comparing the boiling point to. Ethanol has an atmospheric pressure boiling point of 78.1 °C (172.6 °F). This is slightly lower than the boiling point of water at the same pressure, much lower than the boiling point of iron, much higher than the boiling point of bromine.
Boiling point ethanol?
78.3 degrees Celsius is the boiling point of ethanol.
What has a higher boiling point alcohol or water?
Water has a higher boiling point that alcohol (ethanol). The main reason for this is because water has stronger intermolecular forces holding the molecules together.
What effect does adding water have on the boiling point of ethanol?
The pure ethanol has the boiling point 78.5 celsius while water has 100 celsius so when water is added to ethanol its boiling point becomes increased.
Why does ethanol has a higher boiling point?
i think it's because there are strong covalent bonds needed to be broken.
Why ethanol has high boiling point than diethyl-ether?
Ethanol has intermolecular hydrogen bonding where as diethylether does not have this kind of bonding. So BP of ethanol is higher than diethylether.
Why does the boiling point of methylated spirits drop?
The boiling point of methanol is lower than the boiling point of ethanol.
Why ethanol has a higher boiling point than diethyl ether?
Ethanol has an -OH group which can involve in hydrogen bonding and diethyl ether molecules haven't such groups.
Is alcohol solution boiling point higher or lower than salt solution?
Lower. The boiling point of ethanol is 78 degrees C. Adding salt to water raises the boiling point of that solution above 100 degrees C.
