Question 17

A molecule has the following condensed formula: $$\mathrm{CH_3CH_2OH}. $$Which of the following is true?

Accepted Answer

It can form hydrogen bonds with water.

Question 18

Which of the following best describes the polarity of a molecule of $$\mathrm{CH_2Cl_2} ($$dichloromethane)?

Accepted Answer

The molecule is polar because the dipoles do not cancel.

Question 19

Which of the following best explains why $$\mathrm{H_2O}$$ has a higher boiling point than $$\mathrm{H_2S}$$?
