Interpretation:
All of the intermolecular interactions present in
Concept introduction:
The boiling point of a compound depends on the intermolecular forces of attraction. As the strength of intermolecular force of attraction increases, the energy required to overcome this barrier of force of attraction increases. The strength of the intermolecular interactions from the weakest to the strongest is as follows:
Dispersion forces < Induced dipole-induced dipole < Dipole-dipole < Hydrogen bonding < Ion-dipole < Ion–ion.
As the strength of intermolecular forces increases, the boiling point of the compound increases.

- :Name the following molecule الجواب مثیل هکسانarrow_forwardIn an advanced analytical chemistry lab, a team analyzing a compound 'Q' known to be a structural isomer of octane (C8H18). To determine the specific structure of 'Q', a series of spectroscopic analyses are performed. The sequence of the analysis involves: Infrared (IR) spectroscopy, which indicates the absence of functional groups like alcohols, ketones, and carboxylic acids. Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, showing signals indicative of only methyl and methylene groups, with no evidence of methine (CH) or quaternary carbon environments. Mass spectrometry (MS), revealing a fragmentation pattern consistent with branched alkane structures. Based on this sequence of analyses, what is the most likely structure of compound 'Q'? Options: A. 2,2,4- Trimethylpentane B. n-Octane C. 2-Methylheptane D. 3-Ethylhexane Don't use chatgpt please provide valuable answerarrow_forwardThese are the boiling points for the unbranched hydrocarbons listed. Consider your knowledge of bonding and chemical forces, and infer what might contribute to the increasing boiling points as the carbon chains grow longer. Then state whether you think all of the isomers of a compound have the same or different boiling points; give a reason for your answer.arrow_forward
