Question

boiling point of 2 methyl pentane is greater than that of 2,3 dimethylbutane ​

Answer 1

Answer:

hey here is your answer

In the given compounds, 2-Methylpentane has only one branched group, whereas 2,2-Dimethylbutane and 2,3-Dimethylbutane have two branched methyl groups. Thus, 2-Methylpentane has a higher Vanderwaal force due to higher surface area for contact and hence a higher boiling point.
