Q1B ONLY
The melting points and boiling points of two isomeric alkanes are as follows: CH3(CH2)6CH3, mp = -57 °C and bp = 126 °C; (CH3)3CC(CH3)3, mp = 102 °C and bp = 106 °C. (a) Explain why one isomer has a lower melting point but higher boiling point. (b) Explain why there is a small difference in the boiling points of the two compounds, but a huge difference in their melting points.
The following name given is incorrect or incomplete, but it represents a real structure. Draw structure and name it correctly.(a) 2,3-diethylcyclopentane
