(2) molecular weight and surface area, and (3) dipole moments. Except for neopentane,
these
points. Because 2,3-dimethylbutane is more highly branched (and has a smaller surface
area)
than hexane, 2,3-dimethylbutane will have a lower boiling point than hexane. So far, we
have
each pair of compounds, circle the compound you expect to have the higher boiling point.
