Question
Chapter 1.13, Problem 11LTS
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: The compound that has higher boiling point should be identified amongst neopentane or 3-hexanol.
Concept Introduction: The temperature at which transition of a substance takes place from liquid to gaseous state is said to be its boiling point. At boiling point, the vapor pressure and applied pressure on the liquid become equal. There is a direct relationship between the interaction present in molecule and the boiling point of the molecule. The molecule that has stronger interaction between its atoms/molecules possess higher boiling point and vice-versa.
