The decreasing order of boiling points of the following alkanes is: (a) Heptane (b) butane (c) 2-methylbutane (d) 2-methylpropane (e) hexane Choose the correct answer from the options given below:NEET 2022 (Phase 2)

Options:

Answer:
D
Solution:

With increase in molecular mass, van Der Waal force increases and hence boiling point also increases. BP : Heptane Hexane 2- Methyl Butane Butane 2- methly propane with the increase in branching, surface area decreases of molecules of same molecular mass which results in decrease in boiling point.
