Which model is a better predictor, using molecular weight or number of carbon chain
Is boiling point associated with molecular weight and carbon chains.
Molecular weight or number of carbon chains – independent variables (predictor)
Boiling point of alkane – dependent variable (outcome)
Boiling point = x1 (molecular weight) + intercept
Boiling point = x1 (Number carbon chains) + intercept
