Why does propanone has a higher boiling point than ethoxyethane?

Ethoxyethane is heavier than propanone and that will surely make a difference. The carbon-oxygen bond in ethers is less polarized than that in aldehydes and ketones. This is because the oxygen in ethers is attached to two electron pushing alkyl groups which account for the oxygen atom's electronegativity. Thus, dipole-dipole interactions are weaker in ethers giving them a lower boiling point than the corresponding aldehyde or ketone.

∙ 12y agoBecause propanoic acid has hydrogen bonding while propanone does not. London Dispersion Force is the weakest intermolecular force then its Dipole-dipole bonding
then Hydrogen Bonding. Since propanone is polar, it has london dispersion force and dipole-dipole and propanoic acid has london dispersion, dipole-dipole and hydrogen bonding so propanoic acid has a stronger intermolecular force therefore it takes more energy to break the bonds apart which means more heat is needed to break the bonds of propanoic acid than propanone.

Does chlorine or oxygen has higher boiling point?
Chlorine has higher boiling point.
Why does 1-propanol have a higher boiling point than 2-propanol?
The compound is bigger. They all contain -OH branches but propanol has 3 carbons, whereas ethanol has 2 carbons, and methanol has 1 carbon. There are more intermolecular forces which increases boiling points.
How does pressure affect boiling point?
The boiling point is that temperature when the SATURATEDvapor pressure of a liquidbecomes equal tothe surrounding pressure.Thus the higher the sorrounding pressure, the higher the boiling point.
What C7H16 isomer has the highest boiling point?
Heptane - longer the chain, higher the boiling point. Least amount of branches, higher the boiling point.
A student measures the boiling point of rainwater and sea water.Which has the higher boiling point?
Sea water has higher boiling point,as it contains sodium chloride
What has a higher boiling point 1 propanol or propanone?
I think propane is higher??
What is the boiling point of propanone if pressure of surface is 48 kilopascals?
The boiling point would be 35 degrees Celsius. Use a graph comparing vapor pressure to temperature, go to the point where propanone is at 48 kpa, and see what the temperature is.
Do ionic compounds have a irregular structure?
Propanone has a lower boiling point and evaporates faster.
Does chlorine or oxygen has higher boiling point?
Chlorine has higher boiling point.
What is propenone melting ang boiling point?
There is no such compound as propenone, but the m.p. and b.p. of propanone(acetone) is -94.9C and 56.53C, respectively.

How does pressure affect boiling point?
The boiling point is that temperature when the SATURATEDvapor pressure of a liquidbecomes equal tothe surrounding pressure.Thus the higher the sorrounding pressure, the higher the boiling point.
How does salt effect boiling point?
The boiling point is higher.
Which substance has higher boiling point nitrogen fluoride or NH3?
Boiling point of NH3: -33,34 0C Boiling point of NF3: -129,1 0C The boiling point of ammonia is higher.
What happens if boiling point is higher than melting point?
The boiling point is always higher than the melting point.
Does chlorine have a higher boiling point than iodine?
iodine is having higher boiling point
What C7H16 isomer has the highest boiling point?
Heptane - longer the chain, higher the boiling point. Least amount of branches, higher the boiling point.
