Question

There is increase in boiling point of __________ takes place for each carbon atom added to the chain.

• A. ${10}^0$ to ${20}^0$
• B. ${20}^0$ to ${30}^0$
• C. ${30}^0$ to ${40}^0$
• D. $5^0$ to ${10}^0$

Answer 1

Answer: (B)

${20}^0$ to ${30}^0$

Usual trend in hydrocarbons the addition of one carbon atom increases the boiling point with ${20}^{\circ }$ to ${30}^{\circ }$ C for the parent chain.
