Q 2. Arrange the following alcohols in the increasing order of their acidic strength. a) 2-butanol b) methyl alcohol c) 1-propanol d) 2-methyl-2-propanol. View Solution. Q 3. 1‑propanol & 2‑propanol can be best distinguished by: View Solution. Q 4. why IUPAC name of propyl alcohol is 2-propanol not propanol. Water is more polar than 2-propanol, so 40% 2-propanol in water is more polar than 60% 2-propanol. This is due to the electronegativity of the atom bonded to oxygen. Since hydrogen is less electronegative than carbon, it is easier for the oxygen to pull electrons towards itself in water, than it is for the oxygen to pull electrons from carbon Feb 22, 2019 Ā· 1-Propanol and 2-Propanol can be best distinguished by (a) Oxidation with alkaline KMnO4 followed by reaction with Fehling solution (b) Oxidation with acidic dichromate followed by reaction with Fehling solution (c) Oxidation by heating with copper followed by reaction with Fehling solution Sep 15, 2012 Ā· In this work we studied the LLE of 1-propanol, 2-propanol, 2-methyl-2-propanol or 2-butanol + sodium sulfite + water ATPSs, and the experimental binodal and tie-line data at T = 298.15 K were reported. The effect of different alcohols and different anions on the phase-formation ability of the studied systems was discussed considering the Oct 31, 2019 Ā· Question 2. 1-Propanol and 2-propanol can be best distinguished by (a) Oxidation with KMnO 4 followed by reaction with Fehling solution? (b) Oxidation with acidic dichromate followed by reaction with Fehling solution. (c) Oxidation by heating with copper followed by reaction with Fehling solution. (d) Oxidation with cone. Solution. Verified by Toppr. Ethyl alcohol (ethanol) gives iodoform test. This test is not given by propan- 1 -ol. C 2 H 5 O H + 6 N a O H + 4 I 2 → C H I 3 + H C O O N a + 5 N a I + 5 H 2 O. fxO9J.

1 propanol and 2 propanol can be best distinguished by
