Answer is: <span>the greater boiling point of 2- propanol is because hydrogen bonds between 2-propanol molecules and more energy is required to breake those bonds.
</span>Hydrogen bond is an electrostatic attraction between two polar groups that occurs when a hydrogen atom (H), covalently bound to a highly electronegative atom such as flourine (F), oxygen (O) and nitrogen (N) atoms.
