ANSWERS:

PART 1:

1) 2)

3) 4)

5) 6)

7) 8)

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

5) 4-hydroxyhept-5-enal

8) cyclohept-5-en-2-yne-1,1-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.
