Explanation:
The change in entropy is a measure of temperature. When the temperature of a compound or a system increases, there will be more randomness in the system.
The boiling point is directly related to the number of carbon atoms but is indirectly proportional to the branching in a hydrocarbon.
Butane and methyl propane, both have 4 carbon atoms.
But, butane has 4 carbon atoms in a straight chain while methyl propane has 3 carbon atoms in a straight chain and 1 methyl substituent which makes it a branched hydrocarbon.
Thus, the boiling point of methyl propane will be less than the butane. Likewise, the pattern in entropies will be seen.
