9) 10)
PART 2:
1) pentan-3-ol
2) 3,4-dimethylpentan-2-ol
3) 6,7,7-trimethyloctane-2,3,4-triol
4) 2,2-dichloro-4-iodoheptane-3,5-diol

9) a) 5-fluoro-4-propylbenzene-1,3-diol b) 3-fluoro-4-propylphenol
10) 2-propylpentan-1-ol
PART 3:
1 a) b)
2) The presence of a hydroxyl group in methanol makes the molecule more polar than methane and allows hydrogen bonding between molecules. This increases its intermolecular forces and results in a higher boiling point
3) lowest to highest: butane, butan-1-ol, octane, octan-1-ol
4)a b)
5)a
b)
6) Propane is a hydrocarbon, nonpolar, with weak intermolecular forces; thus, it has a low boiling point and is a gas at room temperature. 2-propanol is an alcohol, with a polar hydroxyl group, with strong intermolecular hydrogen bonds; thus, it has a higher boiling point than propane and is a liquid at room temperature.
