What is the intermolecular bond of methanol?

If you're talking about the attraction between molecules of methanol, it's called "hydrogen bonding." It's actually not a chemical bond, just a strong positive-to-negative attraction.


How would you convert benzophenone into benzanilide?

benzophenone + NH3OHCl --> benzophenone oxime (+acid) ---> beckmann rearrangement --> benzanilide


Is benzophenone soluble in hexane?

Benzophenone is partially soluble in hexane. Benzophenone is polar, where as, hexane is nonpolar. "Like dissolves like."


What is methanol's melting point?

Methanol melts between -98oC and -97oC. It boils at 64.7oC.


What is difference between methanol and ethanol?

Methanol is CH3OH while ethanol is C2H5OH. The difference is CH2.


What is the increasing polarity order of bi phenyl benzhydrol benzophenone?

From least to most polar: biphenyl >> benzophenone >> benzhydrol

Are diphenylmethanol and benzophenone created in a one to one ratio?

The question here is asked in a slightly incorrect manner. Assuming I understand exactly what you meant to ask which is "In a reduction of Benzophenone is Diphenylmethanol created with a 1/1 molar ratio?" then the answer is yes they are. For every mole of benzophenone one mole of diphenylmethanol is created. Benzophenone is a reagent and diphenylmethanol is a product in a reduction of benzophenone reaction. However if you're referring to a reaction which creates BOTH diphenylmethanol and benzophenone as products, then you would need to provide the reagents that create the two.


Does methanol have a higher boiling point than water?

water have inter molecular hydrogen bonding whereas in methanol there is intra molecular hydrogen bonding.the oxygen atom and hydrogen of other molecule have electrostatic force of attraction in water and forms bridge between each other and form an associated structure thus it has more b.p


Why is Benzophenone commonly used with clear or glass packaging?

Benzophenone prevents ultraviolet light from damaging colors and scents in products. Without the use of benzophenone some products would have to be shipped in black or dark packaging for protection.


Difference between methanol and ethanol?

Methanol is CH3OH, ethanol is CH3CH2OH. Both are alcohols, ethanol has one carbon more (or a CH2 group more) and is less polar than methanol. Also ethanol has higher boiling point than methanol.
