What is the dehydration of tertiary alcohols which olefin should predominate in the product of the dehydration of 2-methyl-2-butanol?
2 methyl 2 butene
Why are two distillations performed for 2-methyl-2-butanol lab?
I'm guessing that because it is a tertiary alcohol, a lot of dehydration occurs. So you may need to distill repeatedly to get rid of the water?
Balanced formula for the dehydration of 2-butanol?
C4h10o à c4h8 + h2o
What formula represents a tertiary alcohol?
molecular formula is C4H10O also written as (CH3)3COH
What is the viscosity of butanol in millipoise?
The viscosity of n-butanol is 2,593.10-3 Pa.s or 25,93 millipoise.

Is water soluble in 1-butanol?
The solubility of 1-butanol in water is 90g Butanol / L Water. Butanol, being an alcohol, is slightly polar.
2-butanol immersible in water why?
2-butanol is miscible with water.
What is the condensed structure of 1-butanol?
ch3ch2ch2choh This is i-butanol CH3CH2CH2CHOH.Thanks mosynoe

Why does butanol heat water more than methanol?
Butanol is has less polarity than methanol
Is butanol a base?
In spite of the same OH group as in bases, butanol is not a hydroxide (base, alkaline) it is an alcohol (alkanol) in the organic group of compounds: they do not ionise or hydrolyse in water, no OH- ions are split off.There are 3 formula isomers of butanol: CH2OH-CH2-CH2-CH3 (1-butanol) and CH3-CH(OH)-CH2-CH3 (2R-butanol) and CH3-C(OH)H-CH2-CH3 (2S-butanol), the '2R' and '2S' butanol formula's are mirror isomers.
What is C4H9OH?
butylalcohol (butanol)
Is butanol a reactant?
yes it is
