If all the following liquids are at the same temperature, then the liquid having the least vapor pressure will be:
Answer: Heptane (C₇H₁₄)
Explanation
Among the listed liquids, heptane (C₇H₁₄) has the greatest molecular weight
Thus the strongest intermolecular forces, lead to the lowest vapor pressure at the same temperature
