Consider the following statements: I. In a group of isomeric acyclic compounds, normal compound always has the highest boiling and melting point. II. Greater the branching in alkanes, lower is the boiling point. III. Melting point of alkanes depend upon the packing of molecules in the crystalline lattice. Select the correct statement (s).

Answer: (B)

Solution

Statement II is true (branching reduces surface contact) and III is true (melting point depends on crystal packing), but I is false because the highly
