Correct Answer: C
Explanation:
All the 5 compounds are isomers of hexane but D is un-branched. It has the greatest surface area of contact for VDW interaction and hence the highest boiling point.
The enthalpy changes for two reactions are given by the equations below
2Fe(s) + 1½ O2(g) → Fe2O3(s) ΔHᴓ= -822 kJ mol-1
C(s) + ½ O2 (g) → CO(g) ΔHᴓ= -110 KJ MOL-1
