Detailed Solution

The boiling point order is alkynes ) alkenes > straight-chain hydrocarbon > branched-chain hydrocarbon > cycloalkane (with the same number of C atom).So, the answer is (l).The melting point order is: alkynes > trans-alkene > cis-alkene > cycloalkane > branched-chain hydrocarbon > straight-chain hydrocarbon.
