chapter 10 acohols and phenol Flashcards
solubility in H20 of butan-1-ol
+
what is the color of the ferric chloride test of phenol
violet
what is the color of ferric chloride test of butan-1-ol
yellow
explain why many alcohols are soluble in water. What part of an alcohol limit its solubility in water and what part of alcohol make it soluble in water?
it is soluble in water due to their ability to form hydrogen bonds with water molecules.the hydrocarbon can limit its solubilty in water. shorter hydrocarbon chains tend to increase solubility while long chains decrease solubility.
what do u predict that methanol, ethanol and propanol are soluble in water?
all are soluble in water since they can form hydrogen bonds with water molecules. This bonds enable the alcohols to mix and dissolve in water.
what is the ferric chloride test of tert-butanol?
yellow
what is the ferric chloride test of unknown 2?
yellow
ph of phenol
6
what is the structure of methanol
CH3-OH
what is the structure of ethanol
CH3CH2-OH
what is the structure of propanol
CH3CH(OH)CH3
what do you call a benzene with OH
phenol
alcohols are organic compounds that contains
____ group.
hydroxyl (OH)
classifications of aliphatic alcohol
1- primary alcohol
2- secondary alcohol
3- tertiary alcohol
OH group is attached to one carbon atom
primary
alcohol attached to 2 carbon atoms
secondary alcohol
alcohol that attached to 3 carbon atoms
tertiary
what is tertiary alcohol?
it react immediately. the test tube will get hot and because the chloride is insoluble two layers may be apparent or a cloudy dispersion form.
what does secondary alcohol reacts
it will become cloudy in 5-10 min. If cloudiness does not appear place the test tube in hot water bath.
what does tertiary alcohol reacts
no reaction in a reasonable length of time.
aldehyde and ketones containing 1 to 4 carbon atoms are ___________ in water
soluble in water
aldehyde and ketones containing 5 or more carbon atoms are _______ in water.
insoluble
what chemical test can you use to distinguish between pentan-2-one and pentan-3-one?
iodoform test will be and effective way since pentan-2-one will result to positive while pentan-3-one will result to negative.
compound A forms red orange precipitate with benidict reagent but does not react with iodoform?
it is aldehyde
compound b forms yellow solid in iodoform test but does not react with benedict reagent
it is acetone.
does formaldehyde is soluble in water?
yes
functionality of acetone ( ketone or aldehyde)
ketone
Functionality of benzaldehyde (ketone or aldehyde)

what sample is insoluble in water?
benzaldehyde
what are the iodoform test presence of methyl ketone?
acetone and butan-2-one
what are the iodoform test absence of methyl ketone?
benzaldehyde, formaldehyde, vanillin
lewis structure of acetaldehyde
lewis structure of acetone
lewis structure of butan-2-one
lewis structure of formaldehyde
