Which of the following compounds has highest boiling point?
BVP MedicalBVP Medical 2009
Solution:
Boiling point of alkanes $ \alpha $ molecular mass with branching surface area, and hence, van der Waals forces decrease, hence, straight chain alkanes have higher boiling point than their corresponding branched chain isomers. Hence, n-hexane, having highest molecular mass among the given, has the highest boiling point.
