Out of o- and p-bromobenzene, which one has a higher melting point, and why?

Answers (1)

p-Dibromobenzene has a higher melting point. Because, in a crystal lattice, the symmetry of p-bromobenzene makes it fit better. As a result, a higher temperature is required to break the bond between the molecules and hence the melting point is higher.
