Answer:
B. CH3CH2OH
Explanation:
Ethanol has a chemical formula of CH3CH2OH, it is the second member of the series in the alkanol family. Ethanol is a colourless, volatile liquid with a characteristic smell and taste. It is readily soluble in water in all proportions. It has a boiling point of 78° C. The physical properties such as the solubility of alkanols are affected by the presence of hydrogen bonding. The hydroxyl group is capable of bonding to other alkanol molecules. The boiling points rise with increasing molecular mass.
Hydrogen bonding helps the molecules to stick together. For example comparing the boiling point of pentane ( 36° C) with that of butan-1-ol (118° C) , the boiling point of alkanol is much higher even though the two compound are of similar relative molecular mass. This is due to the presence of hydrogen bonds in butanol.
Hydrocarbons are not soluble in water but alkanols are soluble in water because of the hydroxyl groups in the molecules can form hydrogen bond with water. Solubility of alkanol in water decreases as the number of carbon atom increases. Primary alcohol with more than five carbon atoms are insoluble in water.
Answer:
False
Explanation:
Nutrients are so important to our health.Nutrients are compounds in foods essential to life and health, providing us with energy, the building blocks for repair and growth and substances necessary to regulate chemical processes.
Tetrahedral. like methan ch4 it doesn t have lone pairs of electrons and the bonds are oriented with a 109* 28' angle and a tetrahedron has the angles of 109 degrees so almost the same.
The correct answer is law of conservation of mass!
