Consider the boiling points of the following compounds and their solubilities in room-temperature water. Why does the solubilities in water go down as the boiling points of these alcohols go up. 
A) Larger molecules are less attracted to one another by induced dipole-induced dipole as well as by dipole-dipole and dipole-induced dipole attractions.
B) As the boiling increases, it is more difficult to keep the alcohol from evaporating out of solution.
C) As the boiling point increases, the size of the alcohol molecules decreases.
D) Larger molecules are more attracted to one another by induced dipole-induced dipole as well as by dipole-dipole and dipole-induced dipole attractions.
