Because it has 2 double bonds. An ether might not have any double or triple bonds!

∙ 14y agoThis is incorrect. Furan is readily soluble in ether. Furan is partially polar because of its oxygen molecule. Ether is also mildly polar because of its own oxygen.

Do Furan is weak base Or strong base?
weak
What characteristic is in all lipids?
An important feature that all lipids have in common with one another is they are hydrophobic structures.
Preparation of 3-hydroxy pyridine?
Try reacting furan-2-aldehyde with ammonia in ethanol
What is a substance that will not dissolve into another substance?
A substance that does not dissolve is insoluble.
What is the heteroatom in ether?
The heteroatom in ether is oxygen.
Is sodium metal is insoluble in ether a chemical or physical reaction?
Insoluble
Solubility of pb with lipids?
The lipid glycerol is soluble in both water and ether. Olive oil is soluble in ether, but not water. A solid lipid is insoluble in water, methanol, and ether.
Why furan do not show nucleophilic subtitution reaction?
Hi I m confused that in simple furan why it do not show nucleophilic subtitution reaction. while in subtituted furan show it.
Why is ether insoluble in water?
The rule states that "like dissolves in like". Since sucrose is a polar covalent compound, it can only dissolve in solvents that are polar. However, petroleum isnt a polar covalent compound, thus compunds that are not covalent will dissolve in it.
why is it that sodium chloride is insoluble in ether?
Ether has a lower dielectric constant than water. Therefore, the energy required to separate the cations from the anions in ether is greater than in water. The entropy gain that could result from converting solid salt to a solution is therefore not great enough to overcome the attractions between the ions in ether, but it is great enough in water.
Is sodium chloride is soluble in ether?
Sodium chloride is highly polar (ionic in fact) where hexane is very not. The two don't attract at all, so each is insoluble in the other.
Is naphthalene soluble to ethyl alcohol?
Naphthalene is said to be somewhat soluble in ethyl alcohol (ethanol). It is insoluble in water and very soluble in ether, chloroform, or carbon disulfide.
What is the basicity of furan?
furan though has a lone pair of electron which is not delocalised but due to high electronegetivity of oxygen it is not a available for donation hence has weak basic proerty

What is the molar mass of furan?
68.08 grams/mole
Do Furan is weak base Or strong base?
weak
What has the author Thomas F Terbilcox written?
