Blurred answer
Students have asked these similar questions
How does the structure of an alcohol differ from an ether? Describe how an aldehyde differs in structure from a ketone. Thiols are compounds which resemble alcohols, except that the oxygen atom is replaced by a sulfur atom. Draw the analogous thiol for the four carbon alcohol in Table 1.  Describe the structural difference between carboxylic acids and esters.  Are ethers polar molecules? Would you expect ethers to have higher or lower boiling points than alkanes (circle one)? Explain. Pentane (an alkane) has a boiling point of 36 °C. Does the data agree with your prediction? explain why this could be the case
The dehydration of an alcohol produces which organic functional group and steam? a. alkyne b. aldehyde c. alkene d. ketone e. carboxylic acid and an alcohol
1) The carbonyl group of aldehydes and ketones is polar where the ⸹+ symbol is placed on the oxygen atom and the ⸹- symbol is placed on the carbon atom. a) True b) False 2) Why is the boiling points of ethers similar to thise of alkanes instead of alcohols? a) Both ether molecules and alkanes molecules are polar, whereas alcohol molecules are nonpolar. b) Hydrogen bonding between ethr molecules is strong and this property is similar to that of alkanes. However, hydrogen bonding is weaker in alcohols than it is in both ethers and alkanes. c) Although ether molecules are polar, they cannot form hydrogen bonds with other ether molecules. Similarly, alkane molecules do not form hydrogen bonds, whereas there is hydrogen bonding in alcohols. d) None of these are correct explanations
