    Methane, the first member of alkane homologous series has the boiling point equal to - \[161{}^\circ C.\] Which of the following represents the correct formula and boiling point of third member of the series?

    A)
    Molecular formula Boiling point \[\left( {}^\circ C \right)\]
    \[{{C}_{3}}{{H}_{4}}\] -85
                   

    B)
    Molecular formula Boiling point \[\left( {}^\circ C \right)\]
    \[{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{6}}\] -185
                   

    C)
    Molecular formula Boiling point \[\left( {}^\circ C \right)\]
    \[{{C}_{3}}{{H}_{6}}\] -69
                   

    D)
    Molecular formula Boiling point \[\left( {}^\circ C \right)\]
    \[{{C}_{3}}{{H}_{8}}\]  -42
     

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    Third member of alkane series is propane i.e., \[{{C}_{3}}{{H}_{8}}.\] Also, on moving down the series, boiling point goes on increasing hence, its boiling point should be higher than that of methane.
