Detailed Solution

Given data : It is given to identify  which of the following has the highest boiling point from the given options.

Explanation :
Ethanol has a higher boiling point than methoxymethane, propane, and ethane.
Despite having roughly the same molecular weight, hydrogen bonding is responsible for the greater boiling point of ethanol (78°) compared to that of propane (-42°). Despite having a higher molecular weight than water, ethanol has less hydrogen bonding than water, which results in a lower boiling point.
Hence, the correct option  (D). ethanol.
