Can someone help me rank all of these from most polar to least? I mean obviously acetic acid is most polar...what about the rest? Does it go: B>C>A>D>E?

 
From one of the destroyer question explanations (sorry dont remember what question) Polarity
alkanes<alkenes<ethers<esters<aldehydes/keytones<alcohols<acids

ranking aldehydes and keytones becomes they seem to be pretty much the same
