Among the following select the alkane that is expected to have lowest boiling point
hexane
2-methylpentane
3-methylpentane
2,2-dimethylbutane
D.
2,2-dimethylbutane
As the number of carbon atom increases, the boiling points of alkane increases because van der waal's forces increases. However, branching results in decrease in boiling point due to decreased surface area which results in weaker van der waals' forces. Thus, order of boiling points of given alkanes is
'X' is an optically active alkane having lowest molecular mass, Predict the structure of the major product obtained on monochlorination of 'X'.
