Which of the statements regarding alcohols and ethers are true? 1-Propanol is more likely to be a liquid at 50 °C50 °C than is m

ethoxyethane (ethyl methyl ether). Methoxyethane (ethyl methyl ether) is more soluble in water than is 1-propanol. Methoxyethane (ethyl methyl ether) is more likely to be a liquid at 50 °C50 °C than is 1-propanol. Alcohol molecules can form hydrogen bonds among themselves; ether molecules cannot. Methoxyethane (ethyl methyl ether) has a higher boiling point than 1-propanol.

Answer:

Following statements are true:

1-Propanol is more likely to be a liquid at 50 than is methoxyethane (ethyl methyl ether).

Alcohol molecules can form hydrogen bonds among themselves;ether molecules cannot

Explanation:

<u>1-Propanol is more likely to be a liquid at 50 than is methoxyethane (ethyl methyl ether). </u>

This is true

Propanol has a boiling temperature (this is the temperature at which the vapor pressure of a liquid equals the pressure surrounding the liquid and the liquid changes into a vapor) of 97-98 °C while methoxyethane a boiling point of 7.4 °C.

This means at 50 °C propanol is liquid but methoxyethane at 50°C is a gas.

<u>Methoxyethane (ethyl methyl ether) is more soluble in water than is 1-propanol.</u>

This false:

Propanol has a hydrogen bonding.  <u> </u>The OH on the alcohol can form a hydrogen bond (as a hydrogen acceptor and donor). Water can hydrogen bond. This means alcohol is will disolve in water. ( Remember Like dissolves like). So, when you have a molecule that can act as a donor and acceptor you end up with a much better interaction with water and end up with something that is more miscible. Ethers are only acceptors since they do not have a hydrogen attached to the oxygen. So, they can only accept a proton from water.

<u>Methoxyethane (ethyl methyl ether) is more likely to be a liquid at 50 °C50 °C than is 1-propanol</u>

This is false because propanol has a boiling temperature (this is the temperature at which the vapor pressure of a liquid equals the pressure surrounding the liquid and the liquid changes into a vapor) of 97-98 °C while methoxyethane a boiling point of 7.4 °C.

This means at 50 °C propanol is liquid but methoxyethane at 50°C is a gas.

<u>Alcohol molecules can form hydrogen bonds among themselves;ether molecules cannot</u>

This is true because:

Ether molecules cannot form hydrogen bonding between themselves because the oxygen atom is attached to 2 alkyl or aryl groups R-O-R, e.g diethyl ether, or Ar-O-Ar, such as diphenylether (C6H5)2O

C2H5-O-C2H5,m or dimethyl ether CH3—O-CH3. however they can between ether molecules and other molecules containing hydrogen atoms, such as alcohols, CH3OH. Any molecule with the hydrogen attached to a strongly electronegative element e.g Nitrogen or fluorine.

<u>Methoxyethane (ethyl methyl ether) has a higher boiling point than 1-propanol.</u>

This is false: Methoxyethane has a boiling point of 7.4 °C while propanol has a boiling point of 97-98 °C. This can be shown because at roomtemperature Methoxyethane is a gas but propanol is a liquid.

When the volume of a gas is
Montano1993 [528]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 232.9 \textdegree C}}

Explanation:

This question asks us to find the temperature change given a volume change. We will use Charles's Law, which states the volume of a gas is directly proportional to the temperature. The formula is:

\frac {V_1}{T_1}= \frac{V_2}{T_2}

The volume of the gas starts at 250 milliliters and the temperature is 137 °C.

\frac{250 \ mL}{137 \textdegree C}= \frac{V_2}{T_2}

The volume of the gas is increased to 425 milliliters, but the temperature is unknown.

\frac{250 \ mL}{137 \textdegree C}= \frac{425 \ mL}{T_2}

We are solving for the new temperature, so we must isolate the variable T₂. First, cross multiply. Multiply the first numerator and second denominator, then multiply the first denominator and second numerator.

250 \ mL * T_2 = 137 \textdegree C * 425 \ mL

Now the variable is being multiplied by 250 milliliters. The inverse of multiplication is division. Divide both sides of the equation by 250 mL.

\frac{250 \ mL * T_2}{250 \ mL}=\frac{ 137 \textdegree C * 425 \ mL}{250 \ mL}

T_2=\frac{ 137 \textdegree C * 425 \ mL}{250 \ mL}

The units of milliliters (mL) cancel.

T_2=\frac{ 137 \textdegree C * 425 }{250 }

T_2= \frac{58225}{250} \textdegree C

T_2=232.9 \textdegree C

The temperature changes to <u>232.9 degrees Celsius.</u>

Which of the following is chemically inert ( unreactive)?
IrinaK [193]

(C) neon (atomic number 10)

Explanation:

The atom that is chemically inert is Neon with an atomic number of 10.

An atom is chemically inert if it does not willingly take part in chemical reaction.

Atoms takes part in chemical reactions in order to attain a stable configuration as seen in the noble gases.

In the noble gases every enable level is completely filled with the appropriate number of electrons.

  • The noble gases are He, Ne, Ar, Kr, Xe
  • These elements do not react with others.
  • From the given option, Neon is a noble gas and therefore inert.
