Diethyl ether and butan-1-ol are isomers, and they have similar solubilities in water. their boiling points are very different,
however. explain why these two compounds have similar solubility properties but dramatically different boiling points
1 answer:
The structure of diethyl ether and butan-1-ol are shown in the figure.
As shown in the figure the diethyl ether will be able to form hydrogen bond with water and so is butanol, due to presence of highly electro-negative element (oxygen)
However a molecule of diethyl ether is not able to form such hydrogen bond with another diethyl ether molecule. Due to this it has lower boiling point
Butanol is able to form hydrogen bond with another butanol molecule due to this it has high boiling point

Answer:
It will not dissolve. More crystals will separate from the solution.
Step-by-step explanation:
If you add a crystal of ammonium nitrate to a supersaturated solution of the solute, it will not dissolve.
Instead, it will act as a "seed" on which more ammonium nitrate crystals will form.
They will separate from the solution as long, colourless, needle-like crystals until the solution is no longer supersaturated.
Answer: 0.745 g of will be produced from 1.08 g of sodium sulfate
Explanation:
To calculate the moles :
is the limiting reagent as it limits the formation of product and
is the excess reagent.
According to stoichiometry :
3 moles of produce = 3 moles of
Thus 0.0076 moles of will require=
of
Mass of
Thus 0.745 g of will be produced from 1.08 g of sodium sulfate
