Students have asked these similar questions
Explain why these compounds (1-propanol, ethylene glycol, and ethanethiol) experience different intermolecular forces based on their molecular structure.
Why are the boiling points of ethers similar to those of alkanes instead of alcohols?
a)
Both ether molecules and alkane molecules are polar, whereas alcohol molecules are nonpolar.
b)
Hydrogen bonding between ether molecules is strong and this property is similar to that of alkanes. However, hydrogen bonding is weaker in alcohols than it is in both ethers and alkanes.
c)
Although ether molecules are polar, they cannot form hydrogen bonds with other ether molecules. Similarly, alkane molecules do not form hydrogen bonds, whereas there is hydrogen bonding in alcohols.
d)
None of these are correct explanations.
Draw the structure of the six constitutional isomers of molecular formula C 5H 12O that contain an ether as functional group.
