The lone pair of electrons on the oxygen atom in an ester can form hydrogen bonds in some situations, but esters cannot form hyd

rogen bonds with each other. How would you expect the boiling point of an ester to compare with that of an alcohol

Answer:

Esters have lower boiling point than alcohols.

Explanation:

Esters are the fruity smelling compounds which are formed from carboxylic acid and alcohol with the removal of water.

The general formula for the ester is RCOOR' which is prepared from RCOOH acid and R'OH alcohol.

Ester can not form strong hydrogen bond as there is no hydrogen attached to the electronegative atom in the ester and thus cannot form hydrogen bonds with each other.<u> Due to this factor, the interactions within the molecules of the ester is lower than that of alcohols which exist in strong hydrogen bonding. As a result, ester can be easily boiled when compared to the alcohols and thus they have lower value of boiling points.</u>

Perform the following operationand express the answer inscientific notation.7.00x10^5 - 5.00x10^4
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Taking into account the scientific notation,  the result of the subtraction is 6.5×10⁵.

<h3>Scientific notation</h3>

First, remember that scientific notation is a quick way to represent a number using powers of base ten.

The numbers are written as a product:

a×10ⁿ

where:

  • a is a real number greater than or equal to 1 and less than 10, to which a decimal point is added after the first digit if it is a non-integer number.
  • n is an integer, which is called an exponent or an order of magnitude. Represents the number of times the comma is shifted. It is always an integer, positive if it is shifted to the left, negative if it is shifted to the right.
<h3 /><h3>Subtraction in scientific notation</h3>

You want to subtract two numbers in scientific notation. It should be noted that when the numbers to be added do not have the same base 10 exponent, the base 10 power with the highest exponent must be found. In this case, the highest exponent is 5.

Then all the values ​​are expressed as a function of the base 10 exponent with the highest exponent. In this case: 5.00×10⁴=0.500×10⁵

Taking the quantities to the same exponent, all you have to do is subtract what was previously called the number "a". In this case:

7.00×10⁵ - 0.500×10⁵= (7.00- 0.500)×10⁵= 6.5×10⁵

Finally, the result of the subtraction is 6.5×10⁵.
