(a)
Interpretation:
The given compounds whether form hydrogen bond or not has to be predicted.
Concept introduction:
Hydrogen bonding: It is a
This type of bonding does not sharing of electrons in a covalent bond, it is attraction between the positive and negative poles of charges atoms.
Polarity: It is a well separation of electric charge leading to a molecule or chemical compounds having an electrical dipole moment. Generally the polar molecules must contain polar bonds due to a different in electronegative between the bonded atoms.
(b)
Interpretation:
The given compounds whether form hydrogen bond or not with ethanol has to be predicted.
Concept introduction:
Hydrogen bonding: It is a electromagnetic attraction between polar molecules with hydrogen bonds to a larger atom (for example oxygen or nitrogen) atoms.
This type of bonding does not sharing of electrons in a covalent bond, it is attraction between the positive and negative poles of charges atoms.
Polarity: It is a well separation of electric charge leading to a molecule or chemical compounds having an electrical dipole moment. Generally the polar molecules must contain polar bonds due to a different in electronegative between the bonded atoms.

- Figure 13.13 focuses on the use of thiol chemistry by skunks. If thiols are more volatile than alcohols and less soluble in water, why do these properties represent an advantage to skunks?arrow_forwardDiethyl ether and butan-1-ol are isomers, and they have similar solubilities in water. Their boiling points are very different, however. Explain why these two compounds have similar solubility properties but dramatically different boiling points. CH3CH2¬O¬CH2CH3 CH3CH2CH2CH2¬OH diethyl ether, bp 35 °C butan-1-ol, bp 118 °C 8.4 mL dissolves in 100 mL H2O 9.1 mL dissolves in 100 mL H2Oarrow_forwardWhich of the following pure compounds can form hydrogen bonds?

- Which of the following pure compounds can form hydrogen bonds? Which can form hydrogen bonds with water? Which ones do you expect to be soluble in water?(i) CH3COCH3 (ii) CH3CH2COOH (iii) CH3CH2CHOarrow_forwardAn ether has a lower boiling point than an aldehyde of the same mass (or number of C atoms). Why is this? a. the ether, containing a carbonyl group, interacts more strongly (ether molecule to ether molecule) than does an aldehyde (molecule to molecule), b. The ether, with its single O atom, can H bond to only 2 water molecules. c. The ether, with its single O atom and no attached H atom, does not form H bonds and does not have a dipole for dipole/dipole interaction. d. All of the above.arrow_forwardWhich of the following compounds has the lowest boiling point? Select one: a. CH3CH2CH2CH2F b. C(CH3)4 c. CH3CH2CH2CH2OH d. (CH3)3COH e. CH3CH2CH2CH2CH3arrow_forward
