Question
Chapter 13, Problem 63E
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The similarity between the structure and shape of alcohols and ethers to that of water is to be explained. Also, the distinguishing property between alcohols and ethers is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
The alcohols, ethers and water are similar in structure. All of them are tetrahedral in structure and have bent or V-Shape. In an alcohol, one hydrogen atom of a water molecule is replaced by an alkyl group. In an ether molecule, both hydrogen atoms are replaced by an alkyl group.
