Question
Chapter 10, Problem 7QRT
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The reason as to why the boiling point of methanol is lower than that of water has to be stated.
Concept Introduction:
Hydrogen bonding occurs when a hydrogen atom is covalently bonded to oxygen, nitrogen or fluorine atom and it develops some partial charge on both the atom. Hydrogen bonds can also be formed between the lone pair of an electronegative atom and hydrogen atom attached with an electronegative atom.
The boiling point of a substance is defined as a temperature at which a substance gets converted from liquid state to gaseous state.
