Why does intramolecular hydrogen bonding decrease the boiling point of the compound?

Q. Assertion :Boiling point of p-nitrophenol is greater than that of o-nitrophenol. Reason: There is intramolecular hydrogen bonding in p-nitrophenol and intermolecular hydrogen bonding in o-nitrophenol.

Q. Carboxylic acids have higher boiling point than carbonyl compounds and alcohols due to the presence of intramolecular hydrogen bonding.

Q. Hydrogen bonds are formed in many compounds e.g.,

H_{2} O, H F a n d N H_{3}

. The boiling point of such compounds depends to a large extent on the strength of the hydrogen bond and the number of hydrogen bonds. The correct decreasing order of the boiling points of the above compounds is :

In the absence of hydrogen bonding, boiling point of water would have been-
