Which of the following has maximum boiling point ?

A

`n-`octane

B

iso`-` octane

C

`2,2,3,4-`tetramethyl butane

D

`n-`butane

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
a
`n-` octane
Boiling point depends on molecular mass. Greater the molecular mass, higher will be boiling point
Boiling point also depends on the structure. If two compounds have same molecular mass, then straight chain or linear compound has higher boiling point.

Which one of following has maximum boiling point ?

In general boiling point of covalent compounds is affect due to increasing molecular weight and hydrogen bonding. Thus it is obversed that the boiling point of octanol is greater that water while that of methanol is lesser than water. The other properties which are considerably affected due to hydrogen bond formation are acidic nature, melting point, anamalous behaviour of water below 4^(@)C ., It is therefore concluded that hydrogen bonding palys a vutal role in explaning many observable facts.
