Haloalkanes & Haloarenes · Physical properties of haloalkanes

Given below are two statements :

Statement-I : Due to increase in van der Waals forces, the order of boiling points is CHX3CHX2CHX2I\ce{CH3CH2CH2I} >> CHX3CHX2I\ce{CH3CH2I} >> CHX3I\ce{CH3I}.

Statement-II : As is more symmetric, its melting point is higher than , however its boiling point is lower than

In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below :

  1. (1)Both Statement-I and Statement-II are true.
  2. (2)Both Statement-I and Statement-II are false.
  3. (3)Statement-I is true but Statement-II is false.
