Why alcohols have high boiling point​

Chemistry
2 answers:
Soloha48 [4]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The hydroxyl groups in alcohol molecules are responsible for hydrogen bonding between the alcohol molecules. As greater energy is required to overcome these strong intermolecular forces, the melting points and boiling points of alcohols are higher than those of alkanes with a corresponding chain length

the number of hydroxyl groups increases is caused by a greater degree of hydrogen bonding between the molecules.

I hope this helps

1. A container holds four times as many moles of CO2 as O2. If the total pressure in the container is 20. atm,
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

Partial pressure of CO2 = 16 atm

Explanation:

Total number of moles of gases = 4+1 = 5 moles

Mole fraction of CO2 = 4/5

Partial pressure of CO2 = mole fraction of CO2 × total pressure

Partial pressure of CO2 = (4/5) × 20

Partial pressure of CO2 = 16 atm

On the basis of chemical structure, which solid will most easily conduct electricity?
Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

Fe

Explanation:

The electrical conductivity depends mainly on the type of chemical bonds between the atoms of a compound.

In the case of MgF2, FeCl3 and FeO3, these have the type of ionic bond. This means that in the atoms of the compound there is an electron transfer, to keep eight electrons in the outermost layer and thus resemble the electronic configuration of the inert gas closest to each of the two elements, due to this ions of opposite charges are formed that are held together by electrostatic forces. These types of compounds are good conductors of electricity, however, to have this property, they must be dissolved in water or molten.

In the case of Fe, however, the type of union between atoms is metallic. In this type of junction, valence electrons are quite free inside the metal, which makes it easy for them to move. For this reason, this compound will conduct electricity in a solid state.

please help!!!!!! What is the mass of 1 mole of magnesium (Mg)? Express your answer to four significant figures. The mass of 1 m
Semmy [17]
I believe you just look at your periodic table for this value. I don't think there is any math involved.
Therefore one mole of Mg = 24.305g.
