Explanation:
A compound that contains more stronger bonds will need more amount of heat in order to break the bonds so that it changes into vapor state.
In 1-propanol, there is hydrogen bonding and it is stronger in nature. As a result, more amount of heat is required to break the bonds between molecules of 1-propanol.
Whereas in propanone, there will be dipole-dipole interactions which are less stronger than hydrogen bonding. Hence, propanone molecule will need less amount of energy than 1-propanol.
On the other hand, pentane will need more amount of heat as it has longer chain of carbon atoms as compared to methane.
Thus, we can conclude that given compounds are arranged in order of increasing vapor pressure as follows.
methane < pentane < propanone < 1-propanol
It would be group 1, the alkali metals and group 17, the halogens.
Hope this helps! (:
It might be more suitable because some data cannot use a graph to show data because there is too much data.
I think the answer is the number of electrons. Hope it help :)
