Within each functional group, the boiling points of members of the group vary according to molecular weight. Therefore, one cannot deduce any functional group from boiling points.
Organic compounds are divided into families called homologous series. Each homologous series has a functional group common to all the members of the series. As a result of this, the chemical properties of all the members of the homologous series are similar.
However, the boiling points of the members of a homologous series vary according the their molecular weights. As such, boiling points can not be used as evidence to classify substances into any particular homologous series.
Summarily, one cannot deduce any functional group from physical properties.

Answer:
9.94 mL, the volume of ethanol needed
Explanation:
The reaction is:
C₂H₅OH(l) + 3 O₂(g) → 2 CO₂(g) + 3 H₂O(l)
We convert the mass of the formed product to moles:
15 g . 1mol / 44g = 0.341 moles
2 moles of dioxide are produced by 1 mol of ethanol, in order to stoichiometry.
Therefore, 0.341 moles of CO₂ must be produced by (0.341. 1) / 2 = 0.1705 moles of alcohol.
We convert the moles to mass, and then, the mass to volume by the use of density.
0.1705 mol . 46 g / 1 mol = 7.84 g of ethanol
Ethanol density = Ethanol mass /Ethanol volume
Ethanol volume = Ethanol mass /Ethanol density → 7.84 g /0.789 g/mL =
9.94 mL
