CHM 219 Module 5 2024/2025 Exam
Questions with 100% Correct Answers |
Latest Update
Alcohol - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔Generic formula R-OH, defined by the presence
of a Hydroxyl group (-OH). Organic derivatives of water, as one of the
hydrogen atoms from the water molecule is replaced by an alkyl group.
Phenols - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔Hydroxyl group directly attached to a benzene
ring
Methyl Alcohol - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔Only H atoms attached to the carbon
bearing the-OH group
Primary Alcohol - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔one alkyl group attached to the carbon
atom bonded to the -OH group
Secondary Alcohol - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔Two alkyl groups attached to the
carbon atom bonded to the -OH group
Tertiary Alcohol - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔Three alkyl groups attached to the carbon
atom bonded to the -OH group

, Boiling Point of Alcohols - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔High due to Hydrogen bonding
between the positively charged H and negatively charged O
Water solubility of alcohols - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔As the carbon chain length
increases alcohol becomes correspondingly less soluble in water.
Alcohols Acidity/Basicity - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔Can act as a weak base
(accepting H+ using a lone pair on the O atom) or weak acid (donating the
O-H proton as H+)
Amphoteric - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔a substance that can act as both an acid and
a base
Alkoxide Ion - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔conjugate base of an alcohol, very strong
base
Alkyloxonium Ion - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔The conjugate acid of the alcohol is
often called a protonated alcohol,
Dehydration - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔Loss of water. An alcohol molecule will lose
H2O to form an ALKENE. Type of elimination reaction — lose the -OH from
one C and H atom from the adjacent C.
First step — alcohol acts as a base.
