Organic chemistry boiling points?

[From: ] [author: ] [Date: 14-04-13] [Hit: ]
C has hydrogen bonding. A does not.(iv) C is most acidic. It is a carboxylic acid, and the C=O pulls electrons away from the OH allowing the H to dissociate as H^+, making it acidic.......
Could someone help with these questions please?

The boiling points can be explained by the degree of molecular interactions.
(i) C has an -OH which allow for hydrogen bonding. D does not. So BP of C is higher.
(ii) B has hydrogen bonding because of the -OH. A does not. BP of A is higher.
(iii) Same reasons as above. C has hydrogen bonding. A does not.
(iv) C is most acidic. It is a carboxylic acid, and the C=O pulls electrons away from the OH allowing the H to dissociate as H^+, making it acidic.
