Explanation: Noble gases constitutes the extreme right position in the periodic table,
They are have the smallest atomic radius and are the most unreactive elements present in the whole periodic table. There outermost shell of electrons that is valence shell of electrons is completely full thus there is no chance of loss or gain of electrons.
Thus noble gas elements are also known as Inert Gases.
I would imagine that n-butanol would have the higher boiling point because it has less branching and therefore stronger intermolecular forces between molecules.
