______________ converts n-paraffins to i-paraffins ?
Correct answer: B. Isomerisation
- A. Alkylation
- B. Isomerisation
- C. Polymerisation
- D. None of these
Explanation
Isomerisation rearranges the straight-chain structure of n-paraffins into branched i-paraffins without changing the molecular formula. Alkylation and polymerisation form larger or differently assembled molecules rather than simply branching a paraffin.
