Answer:
the intermolecular forces that is based on surface area is low and so the branched chain alkanes have lower boiling points than straight chain alkanes

Branched chain alkanes have lower boiling point because the increase in number of branches gives the molecule a spherical shape which results in smaller area of contact which decreases the boiling point
This is given in page 380 class 11 chemistry part 2
