Methanol is more polar because is capable of dipole-dipole interactions AND hydrogen bonding while acetone is capable of just dipole-dipole interaction.
No. Methanol is more polar than acetone
Ethanol is more polar than acetone because in acetone the carbon that the O is bonded to is sp2 hybridized where as the carbon that the O is bonded to in ethanol is sp3 hybridized. Since the sp2 carbon is more polar than the sp3 carbon, acetone has a lower dielectric constant. Hope this helps.
Ethanol is polar, as the non-polar OH group still exerts enough force over the rest of the chain to make the entire hydrocarbon dissolve. This trend continues with alcohols with one carbon (methanol) two carbons (ethanol) three carbons (propanol) and four carbons (butanol). However, butanol is only polar when the OH functional group is attached to a secondary carbon (i.e. butan-2-ol) Hexane is always non-polar, as it is a symmetrical hydrocarbon (like most of them) which means that all forces cancel each other out. So ethanol is more polar than hexane.
Acetonitrile is a more polar molecule than methanol because of the triple bond and lone pair on the nitrogen (N) atom in acetonitrile. This makes that end of the molecule highly electronegative, even more so than an oxygen (O) atom containing two lone pairs in methanol.
Ethanol boiling point: 78.37 °C Methanol Boiling point: 64.7 °C Acetone Boiling point: 56 to 57 °C dichloromethane Boiling Point: 39.8-40.0°C Water Boiling Point: 100°C dichloromethane more volatile than the others
yes
50% methanol will damage the membrane more than 25% acetone. we did the lab.

Acetonitrile is slightly more polar than methanol. This is due to the presence of the C-N triple bond in acetonitrile (CH3CN).
Yes, ethyl acetate is more polar than toluene.
Methane is CH4 or H-CH3 Ethane is CH3-CH3 When compared to H- (in methane), the CH3- (methyl group in ethane) is more electron donating and hence ethane is more basic than methane.
First of all you have to draw the Lewis dot structure of the molecule. If the molecule is symmetrical, it's non-polar. If the molecule is non-symmetrical or asymmetrical, then the molecule is polar.
Yes, methanol is CH3OH and methane is CH4. Methanol is polar (because of the O-H bond) and methane is non-polar (because it is a hydrocarbon.) Water (which is polar) will dissolve other polar things, but not non-polar things.
