- Which is NOT a physical property of alcohols or phenols? O Phenols are generally only slightly soluble in water. O The hydroxyl group of an alcohol is nonpolar. The solubilities of normal primary alcohols in water decrease with increasing molecular weight. Boiling points of normal primary alcohols increase with increasing molecular weight.arrow_forwardDraw the structural formula for each alcohol before you answer the questions. 2- methyl -1- propanol 2-butanol 2-methyl-2-propanolarrow_forwardDescribe chemical properties of alcohols (intermolecular dehydration, intramolecular dehydration).arrow_forward
