B] Alkanes with odd carbon atoms have their and carbon atom on the same side of the molecule and in EVEN carbon atom alkane, the end carbon atom on OPPOSITE side. Thus alkanes with even carbon atoms are packed closely in crystal LATTICE to permit greater intermolecular attractions and hence higher melting POINT.
