Explain : Methanol is more soluble in water than propan-l-ol. |
Answer» (1) Methanol being lower members of alcohols is more soluble in water, but as the size of an alkyl group or molecular weight of alcohol increases the solubility decreases. (2) The solubility of methanol in water is due to polar characters of alcohols (R – O-δ - H+δ) and water (H+δ – O-δ – H+δ). (3) The solubility of methanol is due to the formation of intermolecular hydrogen bonding between polar molecules of methyl alcohol and water. Hence, Methyl alcohol is a associated liquid. (4) In methyl alcohol, size of methyl group being very small, -OH group constitutes major part of the molecule giving more solubility. As size of alkyl group increases, the non-polar character increases the solubility decreases. Hence, Methanol is more soluble in water than propan-l-ol. |

Which of the following pair is more acidic and why? |
Answer» (a). Due to high electronegativity of sp2 - hybridized carbon, electron density on oxygen in phenol (I) decreases. This increases the polarity of O – H bond and results in more ionization of phenol than that of cyclohexyl alcohol (II). Therefore, phenol is more acidic than cyclohexyl alcohol. (b). In p-nitrophenol, nitro group (NO2) is an electron-withdrawing group present at ortho position which enhances the acidic strength (-I effect). The O – H bond is under strain and release of proton (H+) becomes easily. Hence, o-nitrophenol is more acidic than phenol. |
