Answer:

True.

Explanation:

The boiling point of acetone is 56°C while boiling point of 2-methyl propane is  -11°C. Based on these values, boiling point of acetone is much greater than the boiling point of 2-methylpropane.

That could be because acetone has an electronegative atom (Oxygen) doing high intermolecular forces in this molecule while 2-methylpropane is an apolar molecule.

I hope it helps!
