Compounds with stronger inter molecular forces have higher boiling points. Methanol has strong hydrogen bonds. It will have the next highest boiling point. CH4, has the lowest boiling point. The order of strengths of intermolecular forces is: ion-ion > H-bonding > dipole-dipole > London dispersion .
