What can be concluded from the order of boiling points of ether,carbon tetrachloride,ethanol,and water?
(N/A) The boiling point is directly related to the strength of intermolecular forces of attraction. Higher boiling points indicate stronger intermolecular forces. Therefore,it can be concluded that the intermolecular forces of attraction increase in the order: $\text{Ether} < \text{Carbon tetrachloride} < \text{Ethanol} < \text{Water}$.
