List the following molecules in order of increasing melting points: C3H8, CH4, CH3COOH, C2H6

Higher melting points corresponds to stronger intermolecular forces. Go through the list above.

1. CH3COOH has the ability to hydrogen-bond. It will have the strongest intermolecular forces.

2. Of the molecules that are left, the largest one (C3H8) likely has the strongest dispersion forces, as dispersion forces increase as molar mass increases. The smallest (CH4) likely has the weakest intermolecular forces.

The answer is: CH4, C2H6, C3H8, CH3COOH
