Q
Q: Which of the following alcohols has the highest boiling point?
Solution:
Butan-1-ol has the highest boiling point due to its longer carbon chain and stronger hydrogen bonding.
Steps: 6
Show Steps
Step 1: Understand that boiling point is affected by the structure of the alcohol.
Step 2: Identify the alcohols being compared (e.g., Butan-1-ol and others).
Step 3: Recognize that longer carbon chains generally lead to higher boiling points.
Step 4: Note that hydrogen bonding increases boiling points; more hydrogen bonds mean a higher boiling point.
Step 5: Compare the carbon chain lengths and hydrogen bonding capabilities of the alcohols.
Step 6: Conclude that Butan-1-ol has a longer carbon chain and stronger hydrogen bonding than the others.
