Anuradha Puri · Accepted Answer

1) a) Neopentane is more volatile than isopentane since the boiling
point of alkanes decreases on increased branching

2) a) Methane cannot be formed by COCl2 since it can be
formed from CS2 The reaction is as follows:

3) a) CO2 represents the most oxidized form of
hydrocarbon
