    1. The document discusses the relative acidities of four compounds: methanol, ethanol, 1-propanol, and 2-bromoethanol. 2. It states that 1-propanol is the most acidic because acidity increases with molecular size down a group in the periodic table. Bromine is more electronegative than hydrogen, making 2-bromoethanol more acidic than ethanol. 3. At equilibrium, a reaction between methanol and water will lie on the reactant side because methanol is a weaker acid than water based on their pKa values.
