draw two lewis structures for a compound with the formula c2h6o and compare the boiling points of the two molecules
1 answer:
Answer:
See explanation and images attached
Explanation:
There are two compounds that could have molecular formula of C2H6O, they are ethanol and methoxy methane (trivial name: methyl ether). The structures of the two compounds are shown in the image attached as obtained from quora.
The boiling point of methoxymethane is -24.8°C while that of ethanol is about 78.5°C. The reason for the high boiling point of ethanol is the presence of intermolecular hydrogen bonding leading to a stronger intermolecular interaction compared to methoxymethane molecules held together only by very weak dispersion forces.
