Question
Chapter 16, Problem 16.48P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The reason that menthol is a solid and menthone is a liquid at room temperature should be determined.
Concept introduction:
The melting point of a chemical substance refers to the temperature at which it undergoes a transition from solid to the liquid state provided the pressure is normal. The molecules which have higher intermolecular attraction forces will have higher melting points as more energy is required for overcoming these internuclear forces of attraction.
