minor hint
4/5 - needs 2-3 small hints to answer questions but essentially completed
the assignment by themselves
● Ethane C2H6
● Methanol CH3OH
● Methylamine CH3NH2
2. Looking at your Lewis structures, in terms of valence electrons how are these three
molecules similar? How are they different?
4. Considering that the molar mass gives some indication of the relative size of the
molecules, these three are all in roughly the same size range. On the basis of
molecular size alone, would you expect the BP of these compounds be similar or
different?
