When comparing a polar and nonpolar molecule with similar molar masses, the polar molecule in general has a higher boiling point, because the dipole–dipole interaction between polar molecules results in stronger intermolecular attractions. One common form of polar interaction is the hydrogen bond, which is also
Ethane (US: / ˈ ɛ θ eɪ n / ETH-ayn, UK: / ˈ iː-/ EE-) is a naturally occurring organic chemical compound with chemical formula C 2 H 6.At standard temperature and pressure, ethane is a colorless, odorless gas.
In organic chemistry, an acetyl group is a functional group denoted by the chemical formula −COCH 3 and the structure −C(=O)−CH 3.It is sometimes represented by the symbol Ac [5] [6] (not to be confused with the element actinium).
The polar water molecules surround themselves around ions in water and the energy released during the process is known as hydration enthalpy. The interaction has its immense importance in justifying the stability of various ions (like Cu 2+) in water. An ion–induced dipole force consists of an ion and a non-polar molecule interacting.
Different ways of representing a methyl group (highlighted in blue). In organic chemistry, a methyl group is an alkyl derived from methane, containing one carbon atom bonded to three hydrogen atoms, having chemical formula CH 3 (whereas normal methane has the formula CH 4).
Dimethyl ether (DME; also known as methoxymethane) is the organic compound with the formula CH 3 OCH 3, (sometimes ambiguously simplified to C 2 H 6 O as it is an isomer of ethanol).
Diethyl ether is a popular non-polar solvent in liquid-liquid extraction. As an extractant, it is immiscible with and less dense than water. Although immiscible, it has significant solubility in water (6.05 g/(100 ml) at 25 °C [ 2 ] ) and dissolves 1.5 g/(100 g) (1.0 g/(100 ml)) water at 25 °C.
It is considered a universal solvent, as its molecular structure allows for the dissolving of both polar, hydrophilic and nonpolar, hydrophobic compounds. As ethanol also has a low boiling point, it is easy to remove from a solution that has been used to dissolve other compounds, making it a popular extracting agent for botanical oils.
