MDCAT Chemistry QUESTION #4361
Question 1
Which one of the following has higher vapour pressure?
  • Acetone
  • Acetaldehyde
  • Isopentane✔️
  • Benzene
Correct Answer Explanation
Vapour pressure depends on intermolecular forces — weaker forces mean higher vapour pressure. Isopentane ($C_5H_{12}$) has only weak London dispersion forces (low boiling point: $28°C$), giving it the highest vapour pressure among the options.
