Which of the following compounds would have the highest boiling point?
a. 1-propanol,
b. ch3ch2ch2oh ethanol,
c. ch3ch2oh dimethyl ether,
d. ch3och3 ethyl methyl ether,
e. ch3och2ch3

a. 1-propanol,

Explanation:

Boiling point depends on the relative molecular mass of the compound and the kind of intermolecular interactions present in the substance. 1-propanol has a relative molecular mass of 60 and posses strong intermolecular hydrogen bonding. The presence of hydrogen bonding is known to lead to an increase in boiling point. As a result of this, it is obvious that 1-propanol has the highest boiling point among other compounds in the list.

the grams   of   barium that   are in   2.3 x 10^23   atoms of barium   is   52.4 g (answer c)

    calculation

mass = moles   of ba   x molar   mass of ba

  molar mass of ba from periodic table=   137.3 g/mol

  use the   avogadro's law   constant   to   calculate the moles of barium

  that   is     1 mole =   6.02   x 10^23 atoms

                    ? moles = 2.3 x 10^23   atoms

by cross   multiplication

=(1 mole   x 2.3x 10^23 atoms)   / 6.02   x10^23 atoms)=   0.382   moles

mass   is therefore = 137.3   g/mol x 0.382 mol = 52.4 ( answer c)
