Answer:
Formation of intermolecular hydrogen bonding between water molecules and molecules of n-butanol
Explanation:
Low molecular weight alcohols are miscible with water in all proportions. The reason for this is that, when a low molecular weight alcohol is dissolved in water, intermolecular hydrogen bonds are formed between the low molecular weight alcohol and water molecules.
Low molecular weight alcohols such as n-butanol contain the polar -OH group which interacts with water via hydrogen bonding.
this would have a charge of 4 plus
Answer:- The direction of the polarity of the indicated bond is from carbon to oxygen.
Explanations:- There are two types of covalent compounds, polar and non polar. If the bond is between two same atoms for example, H-H, Cl-Cl etc then the bond is non polar. If the bond is between two different atoms then the bond would be polar. The direction of the polarity is from loss electron negative atom to more electron negative atom.
Oxygen is more electron negative than carbon. So, being more electron negative, the bonding electrons are more towards oxygen and it cases partial negative charge on oxygen and partial positive charge on carbon. The direction of the polarity is from less electron negative carbon to more electron negative oxygen.
It is shown in the diagram below:
