Solution:
\(n\)-butane, \(n\)-hexane, 2,3 -dimethylbutane are symmetrical alkanes. Such alkanes are prepared in good yield by Wurtz reaction as these require single alkyl halide for their preparation.
\(n\)-heptane is an unsymmetrical alkane that requires two different alkyl halides for its preparation. This will form three different alkanes, thus, lowering the yield of required alkane.
