Explanation:
Alkanes. ... In general, straight-chain alkanes are converted to branched isomers by heating in the presence of a platinum or acid catalyst. Examples include isomerisation of n-butane to isobutane and pentane to isopentane. Fuels with high branching are favored by internal combustion engines for their higher octane rating.
