Arrange the following in the decreasing order of boiling points
(i)n-Pentane (ii) Iso-pentane (iii) Neo-pentane

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To arrange n-pentane, iso-pentane, and neo-pentane in decreasing order of their boiling points, we need to consider their molecular structures and how these structures influence their boiling points. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Structures**: - **n-Pentane**: A straight-chain alkane with the formula C5H12. Its structure is: ``` CH3-CH2-CH2-CH2-CH3 ...
