Answer : The compound that would be most soluble in water is CH3CH2CH2OH

Explanation :

Water is a polar solvent and can dissolve polar molecules. This is based on the principle "Like dissolves like".

Among the given molecules, CH3CH2CH2CH3 is a hydrocarbon known as butane. All hydrocarbons are non polar. Therefore this compound will not be soluble in water.

The remaining compounds are polar, but Ch3CH2CH2OH shows greater solubility in water owing to presence of hydrogen bonding.

Hydrogen bonding is a type of intermolecular force that gets formed when a compound has hydrogen atom directly attached to highly electro-negative N, F or O atom.

When CH3CH2CH2OH is dissolved in water, it forms hydrogen bonds with water molecules. Due to this hydrogen bonding, the molecule shows greater solubility.

Therefore CH3CH2CH2OH is the most soluble compound in water

Flourine is more reactive than chlorine​
IRISSAK [1]
Justification for your answer

➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖

Chlorine is less reactive than fluorine because the outer electrons in a chlorine atom are further from the nucleus than the outer electrons in a fluorine atom. It is harder for a chlorine atom to gain an electron than it is for a fluorine atom.

There are three things to consider every single time relative reactivity is unknown; atomic radius, shielding, and number of electrons. The reactivity is the halogens ability to gain an electron, so number of electrons already in the atom plays a vital role. Chlorine has more electrons so repels a reacting electron with greater force than fluorine, making it less likely to react.

Fluorine also has fewer electron shells than chlorine, so there are fewer electrons between the positive nucleus and the reacting electron to essentiallly block, or weaken, the electromagnetic attraction. This is shielding. Lastly, fluorine is much smaller molecule than chlorine, and the shorter distance, or radius, between the nucleus and the electron again makes it more likely to attract the electron and react to gain a noble gas configuration.

2C3H7OH + 9O2 -> 6CO2 + 8H2O
MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

Up to 18\; \rm mol \rm CO_2.

Explanation:

The equation for this reaction: 2\; \rm C_3 H_7 OH + 9\; O_2 \to 6\; CO_2 + 8\; H_2O is indeed balanced.

Notice that the coefficient of \rm C_3 H_7 OH is 2 while that of \rm CO_2 is 6.

Therefore, each unit of this reaction would consume 2 units of \rm C_3H_7OH while producing 6 units of \rm CO_2. In other words, this reaction would produce three times as much \rm CO_2\! as it consumes \rm C_3H_7OH\!.

If all that 6\; \rm mol of \rm C_3H_7OH molecules are actually consumed through this reaction, three times as many \rm CO_2 molecules would be produced. That corresponds to 3 \times 6\; \rm mol = 18\; \rm mol of \rm CO_2\! molecules.

Photochemical chlorination of pentane gave a mixture of three isomeric monochlorides. The principal monochloride constituted 46%
meriva

Answer:

Explanation:

In the chlorination of alkanes, the condition necessary is UV light so free radical substitution can take place. For alkanes like pentane, the primary, secondary and tertiary Hydrogen atoms (Hydrogen atoms bonded to their respective carbon) þare taken into consideration and this is because the tertiary Hydrogen is the most reactive (due to bond dissociation energy) hence the easiest to be substituted. The trend is as follows in the order of their reactivity;

1° < 2° < 3°

So, the products of the chlorination of pentane, the principal monochloride constituted is 3 - chloropentane while the other two monomers are:

2- chloropentane

1- chloropentane

Below is the attachment showing the structural formula of the three monochloride constituted pentane.
