Solution

The correct option is B III > II > IV > I
The decreasing order of boiling points of the following is III.RCONH2>II.(RCO)2O>IV.RCOOH>I.RCOCl
Acid chlorides have least boiling point as hydrogen bonding is not possible.
Amides have high boiling point as two H atoms per amide group can participate in hydrogen bonding.
