Explanation / Answer

Alcohols can form hydrogen bonding among themself, where as ethers can't.

Diethyl ether - molecular formula - C2H6O - is insoluble in water where as Ethanol - molecular formula - C2H6O is soluble in water.

Diethyl ether - molecular formula - C2H6O - 34.6 °C

Ethanol - molecular formula - C2H6O -  78.37 °C

Ether has less boiling point than alcohol of same molecular weigth.

Hence, all the statements are wong.
