### Question 10 of 20#### Determine the type of alcohol the molecule shown here.**Diagram:**The diagram depicts a chemical structure of an alcohol molecule. The molecule consists of a carbon chain where the second carbon atom is attached to a hydroxyl group (-OH). The structure can be described as follows:- The first carbon is bonded to two hydrogen atoms and one methyl group (-CH3).- The second carbon, which is attached to the hydroxyl group (-OH), is also bonded to one hydrogen atom and one other carbon atom.- The third and fourth carbons each are bonded to three hydrogen atoms.**Options:**A) primary B) secondary C) tertiary D) quaternary **Detailed Description:**- **Primary alcohols** have the hydroxyl group (-OH) connected to a carbon atom that is attached to only one other carbon.- **Secondary alcohols** have the hydroxyl group (-OH) attached to a carbon atom that is connected to two other carbon atoms.- **Tertiary alcohols** have the hydroxyl group (-OH) attached to a carbon atom that is connected to three other carbon atoms.- **Quaternary alcohols** do not exist, as a quaternary carbon cannot have a hydroxyl group due to having four carbon bonds.The molecule shown in the diagram has the hydroxyl group (-OH) connected to a secondary carbon atom, which is bonded to two other carbon atoms. Therefore, the molecule is a **secondary alcohol**.**Correct Answer: B) secondary** ### Question 11 of 20**Compare the following two isomers. Which is more soluble in water? Why?**#### Diagram of Isomers:- **Compound 1:** Structural formula is a chain of four carbons (butane) with an -OH (hydroxyl) group attached to the fourth carbon.- **Compound 2:** Structural formula is a chain of four carbons (butane) with an oxygen atom linking the second and third carbons, forming an ether.#### Answer Choices:- **A) Compound 1 is more soluble because it has greater ability to hydrogen bond with water.**- **B) Compound 2 is more soluble because it has greater ability to hydrogen bond with water.**- **C) Neither of these compounds are water soluble.**- **D) Compound 1 is more soluble because it will have more dipole-dipole interactions with water.**- **E) Compound 2 is more soluble because it will have more dipole-dipole interactions with water.**### Explanation:The exercise at hand requires evaluating the solubility of two isomers in water. Both compounds have the same molecular formula but different functional groups, resulting in distinct chemical properties.**Compound 1** has a hydroxyl group (-OH), which is known for its strong ability to form hydrogen bonds with water molecules. This significantly enhances its solubility in water.**Compound 2** features an ether functional group (C-O-C). While ethers do interact with water through dipole-dipole interactions, they are generally less effective at forming hydrogen bonds compared to hydroxyl groups.Considering the capacity of hydrogen bonding as a significant factor in determining water solubility, **Compound 1** is expected to be more soluble in water than **Compound 2**. ### Conclusion:The correct answer is:- **A) Compound 1 is more soluble because it has greater ability to hydrogen bond with water.**
