Based on the general trends on intermolecular forces, rank c2h5oh, hcl, and c3h6 in order of increasing boiling point.

The increasing order of boiling point is HCl, C3H6, C2H5OH.

Explanation:

The increasing order of boiling point is:

HCl = -85°C

C3H6 = -47.6°C

C2H5OH = 78.5°C

The boiling point is directly proportional to the strength of inter-molecular forces.

HCl molecule has weak, dipole-dipole and Van der waal's forces, thus it has smallest boiling point.

C3H6 has the second less boiling point owing to the presence of one double bond.

C2H5OH has the highest boiling point due to strong hydrogen bonding.

the answer would be a

the answer to this question is 3.
