Which of the following nonpolar molecules has the highest boiling point?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The molecule with the highest boiling point among the given options is E) CS₂ (Carbon Disulfide, CS2). The boiling point of a substance is influenced by its molecular weight and the strength of its intermolecular forces. Nonpolar molecules like these primarily interact through London dispersion forces, which become stronger with increasing molecular size and mass. Among the options, carbon disulfide (CS2) has a relatively higher molecular weight and size, leading to stronger dispersion forces and, consequently, the highest boiling point.
