2. Rank the boiling points of methane, methanol, and methanal from lowest to highest. Explain your ranking. (6 points) 3. The lo

ne pair of electrons on the oxygen atom in an ester can form hydrogen bonds in some situations, but esters cannot form hydrogen bonds with each other. How would you expect the boiling point of an ester to compare with that of an alcohol

Answer:

(2) Boiling point order: Methanol (highest) > Methanal > Methane (weakest)

(3) Boiling point of alcohol will be higher than ester molecules

Explanation:

(2) Methane is a non-polar molecule. Hence only weakest van der waal inter molecular force is present between methane molecules.

Methanal is polar molecule due to presence of polar aldehyde group. hence weaker dipole-dipole inter molecular force is present between methanal molecules.

Methanol is a polar protic molecule. Hence strongest H-bonding force act between methanol molecules.

The stronger the inter molecular force, the higher will be boiling point.

Boiling point order: Methanol (highest) > Methanal > Methane (weakest)

(3) An alcohol is a polar protic molecule. Hence strongest H-bonding force exist between alcohol molecules.

An ester is  polar molecule. Therefore weaker dipole-dipole inter molecular force is present between ester molecules.

So boiling point of alcohol will be higher than ester molecules.

Not sure, but I would guess it's due to environmental factors, like heat, and imperfections in the metal. Just an educated guess, though.

Now describe the properties of the compound you picked(gold). Compare the properties of the compound with the properties of the
alexgriva [62]

Explanation:

Gold conducts heat and electricity. ...

Gold is ductile: It can be drawn out into the thinnest wire. ...

Gold is highly reflective of heat and light. ...

Gold is prized for its beauty. ...

Gold is malleable, so it can be flattened into extremely thin sheets.

on the other hand Gold consist of copper

Key Properties of Copper Alloys

Excellent heat conductivity.

Excellent electrical conductivity.

Good corrosion resistance.

Good biofouling resistance.

Good machinability.

Retention of mechanical and electrical properties at cryogenic temperatures.

Non-magnetic.

so the difference is that copper is less expensive and not priced with its beauty
