Question

ouizHihopertiesofAlcohols andThenols 1. Why is the boiling point of an alcohol higher than that of an alkane of similar molecular mass? a. The alkane absorbs heat faster so that it boils at a lower temperature. The alcohol is larger than the alkane because of the oxygen. c. The alcohol has the ability to form strong intermolecular interactions. The alkane has only single bonds. 2. Which would you predict to be more soluble in water, 4-methyl-1-pentanol or 1-hexanol? 3. True or False: Hydrogen bonding refers to the bonds between hydrogen and other atoms between molecules. 4. Draw the LEWIS (EXPANDED) structure of 5-hexen-1-ol. Be sure to include all atoms

Explanation / Answer

1) Alcohol has the ability to form hydrogen boning due to which the boiling point of alcohol is higher than that of the parent alakne.

Thus, the correct option is 'c'
