Carboxylic acids have higher boiling points than aldehydes, ketones and even alcohols of comparable molecular mass. It is due to:

1. Formation of intramolecular H-bonding
2. Formation of carboxylate ion
3. More extensive association of carboxylic acid via van der waals force of attraction
4. Formation of intermolecular H-bonding

The correct statement regarding a carbonyl compound with a hydrogen atom on its alpha-carbon is:

1. A carbonyl compound with a hydrogen atom on its alpha-carbon rapidly equilibrates with its corresponding enol and this process is known as aldehyde-ketone equilibration.
2. A carbonyl compound with a hydrogen atom on its alpha-carbon rapidly equilibrates with its corresponding enol and this process is known as carbonylation.
3. A carbonyl compound with a hydrogen atom on its alpha-carbon rapidly equilibrates with its corresponding enol and this process is known as keto-enol tautomerism.
4. A carbonyl compound with a hydrogen atom on its alpha-carbon never equilibrates with its corresponding enol.
