The molecular formula follows the pattern of CnH2n2 where n is the number of carbons in the chain. This table also shows that the boiling points of the alkanes steadily increase as the length of the carbon chain increases. This is due to an increase in the strength of the intermolecular attractive forces and is a general feature of other organic molecules as well.
