Explanation:
The order of boiling point depends upon the type of interactions present between the molecules.
Potassium fluoride (KF) is an ionic compound and the opposite ions are held together by strong electrostatic forces.
is a covalent compound and the molecules are held together by weak van der Waals' forces.
Formaldehyde is a polar compound due to presence of polar carbonyl group. Hence dipole-dipole force is present between formaldehyde molecules.
Thus the decreasing order of boiling point is:

Answer:
Reaction mechanism has been given below
Explanation:
- Propanoyl chloride contains an electrophilic carbonyl center to give nucleophilic acyl substitution reaction by removing Cl group with a strong nucleophile like methylmagnesium bromide.
- Two equivalent of methyl magnesium bromide react with cabonyl center followed by protonation of negatively charged oxygen atom gives 2-methyl-2-butanol.
- In the first step, nucleophilic acyl substituion occurs. In the second step, nucleophilic addition occurs. In the third step, protonation occurs.
- Reaction mechanism has been shown below.
