2,2–dimethylpropane, C(CH3)4, is an isomer of pentane, CH3(CH2)3CH3. Pentane has a boiling point of 36 °C whilst the boiling point of 2,2–dimethylpropane is 10 °C.
The statement that explains the difference in the boiling points for these two substances is:
| 1. | The molecules have different relative molecular masses. |
| 2. | Isomers have different chemical properties. |
| 3. | Pentane has permanent dipoles. |
| 4. | Longer chain, lesser branched molecules have stronger spontaneous/induced dipoles. |
