TEST -1 ALCOHOL PHENOL & ETHER Sandesh A

1 Alcohols and phenols are highly soluble in water

2 The solubility of alcohols decreases with increase in size of alkyl

group but boiling point increases

3 Tertiary butanol is more volatile than n-butanol

4 Boiling point of alcohol is more than ether and alkane of comparable

molecular mass

5 The carbon – oxygen bond in phenol is slightly stronger than in

methanol

6 Boiling point decreases with branching but solubility of alcohols in

water increases with increase in branching

7 Ethanol and propane have nearly same molecular mass but their
boiling points differ widely

8 Isomers of C4 H 10 O differ in boiling point

9 Ortho nitro phenol and para nitro phenol differ in boiling point ,
melting point and solubility in water

10 Para isomer is less soluble in given solvent than respective ortho and
meta isomer

11 Glycerol is highly viscous in nature

12 Para cresol and para xylene differ in solubility in water and aq KOH

13 Lone pair –lone pair repulsion is more than Lone pair –bondpair
repulsion is more than bond pair –bond pair repulsion

13 Draw structure of Water , Methanol , Phenol , Methyl methane

a Clearly indicating all angles and bond length… indicating lone pair –
 Bond pair repulsions…..

Water Methanol Phenol Methyoxy

methane

14 C – O bond length and O – H bond length in phenol is different

15 C – O bond length in methanol ( 142 pm) and phenol ( 136 ) are

different

16 C – O - H bond angle in methanol , phenol and methoxymethane is

different

17 Methanol molecule has a dipole moment

18 Phenol has smaller dipole moment than methanol

19 Water and alcohol have same hybridization, have same no of bond pair
and lone pair still bond angles are different

20 C – O – H bond angle in alcohol ( sp 3 )is less than expected (

tetrahedral angle)
21 The bond angle C – O – C is slightly greater than expected tetrahedral
angle

22 Dipole moment of para –dichlorobenzene is zero but p-dihydroxy

benzene the dipole moment is not zero .
