$Butane$ $"Butane"$ can generate A PAIR of structural isomers...........

Explanation:

Straight chain $n-butane$ $"n-butane"$ has a normal boiling point of approx. $0$ $0$ $^{\circ} C$ $""^@C$ , $isobutane$ $"isobutane"$ , $2-methylpropane$ $"2-methylpropane"$ , has a normal boiling point of approx. $- 10$ $-10$ $^{\circ} C$ $""^@C$ . Can you check these boiling points, and suggest why isobutane should be more volatile?
