Question
Chapter 21, Problem 5Q
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: Structural features to rank hydrocarbons in order of increasing boiling point are to be stated.
Concept introduction: Boiling point of a hydrocarbon depends upon the structural features of the hydrocarbons. Boiling point of hydrocarbons depends upon the intermolecular forces present in the molecule, the number of carbons present and the branching in the hydrocarbon.
To determine: The structural features to rank hydrocarbons in order of increasing boiling point.
