Answer:

Octane

Explanation:

Hydrocarbons are composed of carbon and hydrogen atoms and are generally non-polar. The only intermolecular force of attraction between hydrocarbons is the weak van der waals interaction. Longer the hydrocarbon chain, stronger will be this interaction.

In the given options:

Propane = C3H8

Octane = C8H18

Hexane = C6H14

Ethane = C2H6

Thus, octane is has the longest chain and will have the strongest van der waal interaction which will allow the molecule to stay in a liquid state longer.

Why is sucrose insoluble in dichloromethane?
Vika [28.1K]
Sucrose is insoluble in dichloromethane because dichloromethane is not a polar solvent.
Sucrose is soluble in water because the molecules of sucrose has the ability to react with the molecules of water and thereby forming hydrogen bond which enhance the dispersion of sucrose in the water. 
Sugar can not react in a similar way with dichloromethane because they do not possess chemical species that can react together to form bonds. Thus, sugar is a polar substance which can not dissolve in a non-polar solvent.
