What is the difference between straight-chain and branched-chain alkanes?

Straight-chain alkanes are cyclic while branched-chain alkanes are linear

Straight-chain alkanes have fewer carbon atoms than branched-chain alkanes

The main difference is in the arrangement of carbon atoms, where straight-chain alkanes have a linear structure and branched-chain alkanes have a non-linear structure with side chains.

Straight-chain alkanes have higher boiling points than branched-chain alkanes
