a. The boiling points of aldehydes and ketones are generally lower than alcohols with the same number of carbon atoms.

b. Aldehydes and ketones generally form stronger hydrogen bonds than alcohols.

c. Aldehydes, ketones, and alcohols generally have lower boiling points than alkanes with the same number of carbon atoms.

d. Aldehydes and ketones are too polar to dissolve in nonpolar solvents.
