Tert-butyl chloride has lower boiling point than n-butyl chloride

1.	Tert-butyl chloride has lower boiling point than n-butyl chloride
Answer» CHLORIDE has the higher BOILING point. Because the molecule is unbranched, its intermolecular forces of attraction should be stronger. Googling both COMPOUNDS SHOWS the boiling point of n-butyl chloride to be 78 C and isobutyl chloride to be 68-69 C.
