Without?

Properties differ from different HC. Generally, the higher/bigger it is it has higher melting and boiling point, and the opposite is also true.

They are not polar..EN are almost the same between H and C

If you have a double bond, still not polar, but changes it's MP and BP. So in general, the more double bonds, the less MP and BP

If you do have a functional group, then that changes the properties making it polar, higher/lower MP and BP

Hope this helped, though I am not really sure what you are after.
