which of the following compund has highest boiling point
Answers
Answer:
Explanation:
Can you please provide the options
Answer:
The correct answer is A.
Explanation:
A. Propionamide
The
NH
2
group can form two hydrogen bonds, and the
O
atom has two lone pairs available to form two more hydrogen bonds.
Thus, one molecule of propionamide can form a hydrogen bond to four other molecules,
B.
N
-methylacetamide
The
NH
group can form one hydrogen bond, and the
O
atom has two lone pairs available to form two more hydrogen bonds.
Thus, one molecule of
N
-methylacetamide can form hydrogen bonds to three other molecules,
C.
N
,
N
-Dimethylacetamide and D. ethyl acetate
Neither compound has hydrogen bonding. The strongest intermolecular forces are dipole-dipole interactions.
Propionamide has the strongest intermolecular forces,
It should have the highest boiling point.
