Question
Chapter 2, Problem 2.12YT
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The number of potential H-bond donors and H-bond acceptors in cholesterol and octanoic acid is to be identified.
Concept introduction:
Hydrogen bonds require a H-bond donor and a H-bond acceptor. A highly electronegative atom is hydrogen-bond donor atom and it has partial positive charge.
A hydrogen-bond acceptor cane be a most electronegative atom has a lone pair of elecctrons and partial negative charge on it. The hydrogen bond is formed when the lone pair of electrons of the hydrogen bond acceptor is shared with the hydrogen atom of the hydrogen bond donor.

Hydrogen Bonding with Water
use a computer program and illustrate the expanded structure of your molecule. (If the structure already contains any dashed lines, make them solid (non-dashed) covalent bonds for this assignment so that they are not confused with hydrogen bonds)
Illustrate all the locations where your molecule could form hydrogen bonds with water either as a hydrogen donor or as a target (receiver) of hydrogen bonds from water. Do this by drawing bent water molecules as necessary and representing hydrogen bonds between water and the molecule using dashed lines. Be sure it is clear exactly which atoms on each molecule are involved in the hydrogen bonds.
If your molecule is not capable of forming hydrogen bonds with water explain why not.
Ethanol, C2H5OH, and propane, C3H8, have approximately the same molar mass, yet ethanol has a much higher boiling point. Briefly explain why.
Ethanol, C2H5OH, and dimethyl ether, CH3OCH3, have the same molar mass, yet ethanol has a much higher boiling point. Briefly explain why.
Write an equation to show the reaction between ethanol, C2H5OH and methyllithium, CH3Li. Draw all non-bonding electrons and show electron flow with curved arrows.
37. Write an equation that shows the reaction between acetic acid (CH3COOH) and triethylamine (CH3CH2)3N. Draw all non-bonding lone electron pairs and show the electron flow with curved arrows.

- Choose the best explanation for why these compounds are all less than fifteen carbons. A) Aldehydes with longer alkyl chains become increasingly nonpolar and the LDF are stronger than hydrogen bonding with ethanol. B) Ethanol molecules will hydrogen bond with the oxygen of the aldehydes. However, longer alkyl chains interrupt the ability of the aldehyde to hydrogen bond with ethanol which decreases the solubility. C) Ethanol molecules will form strong LDF interactions between the alkyl chains of the aldehydes and the alkyl groups of ethanol. The strong attractions cause the aldehydes to precipitate out of solution. D) When aldehydes chain length increases, the aldehydes have stronger intermolecular force with the small ethanol solvent molecules than the ethanol-ethanol intermolecular force.arrow_forwardIntramolecular H-bonding (IHB) are interactions that occur within one single molecule.
