option D is correct
what if you don't know the boiling point, another way to tackle it is looking or calculating the molecular masas it increase together with boiling piont C4H10=48
C3H7OH= 60
C7H16 = 100
so option d have the correct other

C4H10→C7H16→C3H7OH
Molecules with hydrogen bonding have higher boiling points due to Hydrogen bonding. But if the intermolecular bonding is the same,the molecule with the higher molecular weight will have the highest boiling point.

THE CORRECT OPTION IS A

The correct answer should be D
As the boiling points of the given hydrocarbons are
C4H10: -138 C
C3H7OH: 97 C
C7H16: 98.42 C
Where C- represents degree celsius

B is correct

Because going down a series boiling point increases and votality decrease ,solubility decreased



So ethanol has hydrogen bond so that mk it more soluble than both of the organic compounds

This is totally wrong...boiling point increases from gas to solid
