Chapter 11, Problem 59SCQ
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Relation between boiling point and branched chain hydrocarbon has to be explained.

Concept Introduction: If intermolecular force is small the vapor pressure of the substance is high and the boiling point will be low.

The boiling point of a liquid is the temperature at which its vapor pressure is equal to the external pressure.

The more the branching in the hydrocarbon, the lower is the boiling point.
