why meta compounds have low bp than ortho. need explanation |
|
Answer» As we know, the stronger the interactions, the more energy will be required to break them. So,due to thesymmetryinpara- positionit has much stability and so it requires much amount of energy, and in such trend, the meta position becomes intermediate and ortho position is highly unstable and so it will require less energy to melt. Thus,the expected trends of the melting and boiling pointssould follow as : para> meta> ortho. your Answer is wrong |
