I think the question should ask
Explanation:
Molecular polarity gives rise to polar interactions between molecules in the condensed phase. And these interactions can constitute an intermolecular force that should ELEVATE the boiling point.
Now this might not be the best example I could draw (and I would welcome suggestions of more apposite molecules), but consider the normal boiling points of chloroform,
