Smoking tendency of hydrocarbons increases in the order : paraffins → isoparaffins → naphthenes → aromatics

Smoking tendency of paraffins increases with decrease in its molecular weight

Smoking tendency of aromatics decreases with increase in its molecular weight

Smoking tendency of naphthenes decreases with its increasing molecular weight & also on addition of double bond
