Answered by ankitsharma26

This is due to the weaker Van der Waals dispersion forces between branched organic molecules compared to straight chain molecules. ... Weaker intermolecular forces means that less energy is required to separate the molecules of a compound from its liquid surface, thus lowering the boiling point.
