Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The compound from dimethyl ether and ethanol to be identified from given boiling point.
Concept Introduction:
The molecular formula of dimethyl ether and ethanol is same C2 H6 O but having different functional group such as ether having −O—while ethanol having −OH.
Boiling point depends on the interaction between the molecule due to the presence of hydrogen bonding. Substance making more H bonding will have high boiling point.
(b)
Interpretation:
The compound with correct water solubility to be identified if one having infinite and other have solubility of 7.8 g /100 mL.
