Given below are two statements :
Statement I : The boiling points of aldehydes and ketones are higher than hydrocarbons ofcomparable molecular masses because of weakmolecular association in aldehydes and ketones dueto dipole - dipole interactions.
Statement II : The boiling points of aldehydesand ketones are lower than the alcohols of similarmolecular masses due to the absence of H-bonding.
In the light of the above statements, choose themost appropriate answer from the given below:
(1).
Both Statement I and Statement II are correct
(2).
Both Statement I and Statement II are incorrect
(3).
Statement I is correct but Statement II isincorrect
