1 answer:
Answer:
B. 1-Butene rightarrow (1) BH3: THF (2)H202, OH-
Explanation:
In the hydroboration of alkenes, an alkene is hydrated to form an alcohol with anti-Markovnikov orientation.
the reagent BH₃:THF is the way that borane is used in organic reactions. The BH₃ adds to the double bond of an alkene to form an alkyl borane. Peroxide hydrogen in basic medium oxidizes the alkyl borane to form an alcohol. Indeed, hydroboration-oxidation converts alkenes to alcohols by adding water through the double bond, with anti-Markovnikov orientation.

Boiling point of a compound is determined by the strength of intermolecular forces of attraction between the molecules present in it. Stronger the intermolecular forces of attraction, higher will be the boiling point.
Ionic compounds show ion-ion interactions which are the strongest among all. Ion-dipole interactions are shown when ionic solutes are dissolved in polar solvents. Hydrogen bonding is also a relatively stronger force that is present between H atom and an electronegative atom like F, O and N() . All polar molecules show dipole-dipole interaction (
and
). Dispersion forces are the weakest intermolecular forces due to momentary dipoles between electron clouds and nucleus.
Among the given compounds, has dispersion forces as the major intermolecular forces of attraction. So they they exhibit the weakest IMF, hence have the lowest boiling point.
