Problem

The halomethanes CH3FCH_{3}F, CH3ClCH_{3}Cl, CH3BrCH_{3}Br, and CH3ICH_{3}I have different normal boiling points. Which order correctly ranks them from lowest to highest boiling point at 1 atm? (a) CH3FCH_{3}F < CH3ClCH_{3}Cl < CH3BrCH_{3}Br < CH3ICH_{3}I (b) CH3ICH_{3}I < CH3BrCH_{3}Br < CH3ClCH_{3}Cl < CH3FCH_{3}F (c) CH3ClCH_{3}Cl < CH3FCH_{3}F < CH3BrCH_{3}Br < CH3ICH_{3}I (d) CH3FCH_{3}F < CH3BrCH_{3}Br < CH3ClCH_{3}Cl < CH3ICH_{3}I
