Explain the differences in boiling point in butane, propanal and propan - 1 - ol

Butane has the lowest boiling point due to its nonpolar nature and weak London dispersion forces.

While propanal has a higher boiling point due to the presence of polar dipole-dipole interactions.

Propan-1-ol has the highest boiling point among the three due to the additional formation of strong hydrogen bonds between its molecules.
