Answer:
Additionally, the boiling point also increases for isomeric haloalkanes. However, the boiling point decreases with the branching of the compound. This is because branching of haloalkanes results in the lesser surface area, thus decreasing the van der Waal's forces interaction.

Branching in haloalkanes decreases the surface area of compound which directly affects the weak Vander Waal force acting between two molecules. Hence force of interaction also decreses. Therefore there is a drop in Boiling point on branching.
