Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
Below components need to be arranged in order of decreasing solubility in water.
Ethanol, Butane and Diethyl ether.
Concept Introduction:
Water solubility is known as the measurement of the chemical substance which can dissolve into the water at the specific temperature. The solubility’s unit is mg/L or ppm i.e. parts per million. Water solubility is the most vital properties which affects the environmental fate and bioavailability of the chemical substances.
(b)
Interpretation:
Below components need to be arranged in order of decreasing solubility in water.
1-Hexanol, 1,2-hexanediol and hexane.

- Arrange these compounds in order of increasing boiling point. (a) 1-butanol, butane, diethylether (b) hexane, 1-hexanol, dipropyletherarrow_forward14-66 1,4-Butanediol, hexane, and 1-pentanol have similar molecular weights. Their boiling points, arranged from lowest to highest, are 69°C, 138°C, and 230°C. Which compound has which boiling point?arrow_forward14-21 Show hydrogen bonding between the oxygen of di ethyl ether and a hydrogen of water.arrow_forward
- 14-24 2-Propanol (isopropyl alcohol) is commonly used as rubbing alcohol to cool the skin. 2-Hexanol, also a liquid, is not suitable for this purpose. Why?arrow_forward12-50 Draw the structural formula of an alkene that undergoes acid-catalyzed hydration to give the indicated alcohol as the major product. More than one alkene may give each alcohol as the major product. 3-Hexanol 1-Methylcyclobutanol 2-Methyl-2-butanol 2-Propanolarrow_forward14-17 Explain in terms of noncovalent interactions why the low-molecular-weight alcohols are soluble in water but the low-molecular-weight alkanes and alkynes are not.arrow_forward
