MCQ
Name the hydrocarbon that is a liquid at $STP$
- AEthane
- BPropane
- C$n-$ butane
- ✓$n-$ pentane
✓
Answer
Correct option: D.
$n-$ pentane
d
Lower hydrocarbons which contain up to $4$ carbon atoms are gases at room temperature whereas higher hydrocarbons are liquid at room temperature. Thus $N - P$ entane is liquid at room temperautre.
