(a)
Interpretation:
The boiling point of the second compound is to be estimated on the basis of first compound.
Concept introduction:
The boiling point of a compound is the temperature when the vapor pressure is equal to the atmospheric pressure. It is a useful property of a compound to determine the purity of the compounds. The boiling point of
(b)
Interpretation:
The boiling point of the second compound is to be estimated based on the first compound.
Concept introduction:
The boiling point of a compound is the temperature when the vapor pressure is equal to the atmospheric pressure. It is a useful property of a compound to determine the purity of the compounds. The boiling point of alkanes increases with increase in the number of carbon atoms. The increase in the boiling point per carbon atom is approximately
