In an experiment, two unknown compounds (one an alcohol and the other an ether) of equal molecular mass were dissolved in water. the result of the experiment is shown in the table.

solubility comparison
unknown compound solubility (g/100 ml water)
a 7.7
b 6.8

which of the following correctly explains the identity of compound b and its solubility?
it is an alcohol because the lack of hydrogen bonding between the oh− groups make it less soluble.
it is an ether because it is unable to form a hydrogen bond, so it is less soluble than the alcohol.
it is an ether because in the absence of a highly electronegative atom like o, f, or n, it lacks hydrogen bonding and is thus less soluble.
it is an alcohol because dispersion forces between the oh− group and organic chain makes it less soluble.

Actual ingredients of lab (the cookies i am actually making) 1/2 cup sugar 1/2 cup brown sugar 1 1/3 stick margarine 1 egg 1/2 tsp salt 1 tsp vanilla 1/2 tsp baking soda 1 1/2 cup flour 1 1/3 cup chocolate chip can you answer the questions below ? discussion 1. suppose you are given the following amounts of ingredients: 1 dozen eggs 24 tsp. of vanilla 1 lb. (82 tsp.) of salt 1 lb. (84 tsp.) of baking soda 3 cups of chocolate chips 5 lb. (11 cups) of sugar 2 lb. (4 cups) of brown sugar 1 lb. (4 sticks) of margarine a. for each ingredient, calculate how many cookies could be prepared if all of that ingredient were consumed. (for example, the recipe shows that using 1 egg- with the right amounts of the other ingredients- yields 24 cookies. how many cookies can you make if the recipe is increased proportionately for 12 eggs? ) b. to determine the limiting reactant for the new ingredients list, identify which ingredient will result in the fewest number of cookies. c. what is the maximum number of cookies that can be produced from the new amounts of ingredients?
