(N/A) For reaction $(1)$:
Isopropyl bromide $(CH_3-CH(Br)-CH_3)$ undergoes dehydrohalogenation with alcoholic $KOH$ to form propene $(CH_3-CH=CH_2)$ as $X$.
Propene reacts with $HBr$ in the presence of peroxide (Kharasch effect/anti-Markovnikov addition) to form $1$-bromopropane $(CH_3-CH_2-CH_2Br)$ as $Y$.
For reaction $(2)$:
$n$-propyl alcohol $(CH_3-CH_2-CH_2OH)$ undergoes dehydration with conc. $H_2SO_4$ at $443 \ K$ to form propene $(CH_3-CH=CH_2)$ as $X$.
Propene reacts with $HBr$ (Markovnikov addition) to form $2$-bromopropane $(CH_3-CH(Br)-CH_3)$ as $Y$.

Given below are two statements:
Statement $I$: Due to increase in van der Waals forces, the order of boiling points is $CH_3CH_2CH_2I > CH_3CH_2I > CH_3I$.
Statement $II$: As $para$-dichlorobenzene is more symmetric, its melting point is higher than $ortho$-dichlorobenzene, however its boiling point is lower than $ortho$-dichlorobenzene.
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:
