Why is octanol used to determine the partition coefficient?
The partition coefficient is used to provide a picture of how a drug distributes itself between the organic and aqueous phases of the body. Since our blood and fluids are aqeous the proteins and fats that the drug penetrates through or attach to are organic. Basically, octanol is a simple and accurate model for the bodies organic phase.
What is the product when 3 octanol undergoes oxidation?
Impossible to say without more detail. Oxidation includes burning to give CO2 and H2O
Is hexane soluable in methanol?
Octanol is more soluble in hexane because it has a longer nonpolar hydrocarbon chain.
Is octanol soluble with hexane?
Octane is a non polar compound. Sodium hydroxide is an ionic solvent. So octane is not soluble in NaOH and they together involve in no reactions.
What is a word that mean an alcohol functional group?
The two letters 'ol' collectively at the end of name of alkane represent the alcoholic group as, Butanol, Pentanol, Octanol. If you're referring to the functional group itself specifically, "hydroxyl" is sometimes used.
What is the molar heat of combustion of 1-octanol?
The molar heat of combustion of octanol is 5294
Why is Octanol an energy efficient fuel?
"Octanol is not the most energy efficient fuel. Butanol is. Octanol gives out 8691.34J of energy per gram. Butanol gives out 15521.21J of energy per gram" Please state your source.
What is the smell of octanol?
you tell me
Is n-octane polar?
water is polar and immiscible with the non-polar octanol.
Is octanol soluble in water?
no it isn't. Since the molecule has over 7 carbon atoms it will not dissolve. Also, the Solubility of octanol is really small.
Alternative for octanol in ctab method?
You can use Isoamyl alcohol instead of octanol. both of them are anti-foaming agents and facilitate separation of phases after centifugation.
What is the product when 2-octene reacts with sulfuric acid?
Assuming there is water present, I would expect the product to be a (roughly equal) mixture of 2-octanol and 3-octanol.
Gases produced when 1-Octanol reacts with SOCl2 and pyridine?
HCl and SO2
Ester formed between 1-octanol and glacial acetic acid?
Octyl Acetate
What is the name of C8H19OH?
Its an alcohol called Octanol because of its 8 (oct) carbon atoms.
How do you distinguish 1 octanol from 1 octene?
1-octanol is an alcohol, so it has an OH group attached to the first C atom. (C8H17OH) 1-octene is an alkene, which has a double bond between the first and second C atoms. (C8H16)
Does hexane dissolve 1-octanol?
It should dissolve it fairly well, yes. Despite the hydroxyl group, octanol is still a lipophilic molecule so you'll get much better dissolution in a non-polar organic solvent than a polar one.
