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.
