?Butane and 2-methylpropane, whose space-filling models are shown here, are both

Chapter 11, Problem 11.23

(choose chapter or problem)

Butane and 2-methylpropane, whose space-filling models are shown here, are both nonpolar and have the same molecular formula, \(\mathrm{C}_{4} \mathrm{H}_{10}\), yet butane has the higher boiling point \(\left(-0.5^{\circ} \mathrm{C} \text { compared to }-11.7^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\right)\). Explain.
