20. Rank the following compounds from lowest boiling point to highest boiling point. Justify
your answers with brief explanations.
First trend: the larger the molecule (higher molecular weight), the higher the boiling point.
Second trend, for 2-methylpropane vs butane (which are isomers): isomers that are more
spherical have lower boiling points since they have weaker attractive forces between the
molecules. The strength of dispersion forces between molecules depends on how much surface
area is available where they collide; spherical molecules have less surface area for these weak
attractive forces.
21. For each set, identify which compounds are isomers, and indicate what type of isomers they
are.
