Description : Name two isomers of butanol? Which has higher boiling point?

Last Answer : Ans. n-butanol and 2-methyl propan-2-ol.Butanol has the higher boiling point as the branching increases the surface area of the molecule decreases so the boiling point decreases.

Description : Suggest a reason for the large difference in the boiling points of butanol and butanal, although they have same solubility in water.

Last Answer : The b. pt. of butanol is higher than that of butanal because butanol has strong intermolecular H-bonding while butanal has weak dipole-dipole interaction. However both of them form H-bonds with water and hence are soluble.
