MCQ
The highest boiling point is expected for :
  • A
    Isooctane
  • $n-$ Octane
  • C
    $2, 2, 3, 3-$ Tetramethyl butane
  • D
    $n-$ Butane

Answer

Correct option: B.
$n-$ Octane
Boiling point is characterized as the specific temperature at which the vapour pressure of the fluid is equivalent to the environmental pressure.
Among the given options
$n-$ Octane is a straight $-$ chain exacerbate that has a very large surface area.
Along these lines, there are more van der Waals forces of attraction, bringing about high boiling points.
