Part 2:
Propane > 2,2-dimethylbutane > Hexane > Hexadecane > Paraffin
Answer to question 2
Answer to question 3
Answer and Explanation: According to Hicks, consumer behavior is not impacted by the income effect. Using the indifference curves, Hicks developed a well-compensated demand curve that nullified the impact of income in determining consumer behavior but considered the consumer’s purchasing power. He concludes that the purchasing power of a consumer reflects their consumption behavior.
