pentane>isopentane>neopentane due to branching bpt decreases

ritiiiii59: u helped me a lot
priya9993: Branching decreases the boiling point. As the length of carbon chain increases, the surface area of the compound will also increase. Van der Waals dispersion force is proportional to the surface area. So the increase of surface area increases the ability of individual molecules to attract each other.
priya9993: surface area actually decreases i mistakenly wrote increases
ritiiiii59: i think u are intelligent
priya9993: please add my answer in brainliest if u think so
ritiiiii59: are u in college?
