MCQ
In paraffins, with the increasing molecular weight, it is found that
  • A
    Freezing point decreases
  • B
    Boiling point decreases
  • Boiling point increases
  • D
    Vapour pressure decreases

Answer

Correct option: C.
Boiling point increases
c
(c) Paraffins are non-polar compounds. The intermolecular forces are weak Vander Waal’s forces. As the molecular mass increases Vander Waal’s forces increases. Hence boiling point increases.
