Physical properties Similarities

Melting and boiling points - Low melting and boiling points and increase gradually with
increasing number of carbon atoms per molecule.

Physical states - Changes from gas to liquid to solid as the number of carbon
atoms per molecule increases.

Density - Low densities.

- Gases and liquids of both are less dense than water.
- Increase gradually with increasing no.of carbon atoms per
molecule.
Solubility - Insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvent.

Electrical conductivity - Cannot conduct electricity in any state.
