There are FIVE isomers of hexane....

Explanation:

And these are....2-methylpentane, 3-methylpentane, 2,2-dimethylbutane, 2,3-dimethylbutane, and of course n-hexane.

The longest chain affords the greatest opportunity for intermolecular interaction thru dispersion forces, and thus n-hexane is the most involatile.... As a chemist, as a physical scientist, you should investigate the normal boiling points of each isomer....
