The boiling points of CH3OH and CH3SH are as follows:

CH3OH: 64.5°C CH3SH: 5.8°C

What causes the large difference in the boiling points?


a. CH3SH has a bigger molecular size than CH3OHcap c cap h sub 3 cap s cap h has a bigger molecular size than cap c cap h sub 3 cap o cap h

b. The O-H bond in CH3OH is stronger than the S-H bond in CH3SHThe O-H bond in cap c cap h sub 3 cap o cap h is stronger than the S-H bond in cap c cap h sub 3 cap s cap h

c. Oxygen is more electronegative than sulfur

d. Hydrogen bond exists between CH3OH molecules
