Heptane is used to dissolve the oil spot to show the previous presence of organic compounds on a stained paper. This is done by shaking the stained paper in a heptane solution for about half a minute.

Heptane could be an isomer of 2-methyl hexane and vice versa.

Heptane is a molecule(s) with chemical formula C7H16. There are many possible isomers of Heptane.

What is the boiling point of heptanol?

1-heptanol: 175.8 °C 2-heptanol: 159 °C 3-heptanol: 156 °C


How would you separate a mixture of heptane and heptanol at boiling point?

Since Heptane has a boiling point of 98 degrees Celsius, and Heptanol has a boiling point of 176 degrees Celsius, you'd evaporate or boil the Heptane and Heptanol mixture to around 120 degrees Celsius. Which would leave the Heptanol behind and have the Heptane evaporated.

Which product would be obtained by the dehydration of 2 heptanol?

For 2-heptanol you would get 1-heptene and 2-heptene. The 2-heptene should predominate since the double bond is more substituted (the more substituted a double bond is the more stable it is).

How will you separate hepton and heptanol mixture into their components?

I will simple use the distillation method. That is I will separate the mixture of soluble from its solution when the solvent is to be recovered; heptane being more volatile (boiling point 98 degree) goes out first before heptanol (less volatile higher boiling point 176 degree)

Which is less soluble in water 1-pentanol or 1-heptanol?

"Alcohols, ethers and epoxides having less than or 5 carbon atoms are water soluble because they each have an oxygen atom capable of hydrogen bonding." "Alcohols, ethers and epoxides having more than 5 carbon atoms are insoluble because the non-polar alkyl portion is too large to dissolve in water" Source: Organic chemistry (second edition) by Janice Gorzynski Smith

How do you draw structure for 2-bromo-3-methyl-3-heptanol?

The structure for 2-bromo-3-methyl-3-heptanol looks as follows: First draw a heptane chain. Single bond a bromine to the 2nd carbon. single bond a methyl group to the 3 carbon. Single bond a hydoxyl group to the third carbon as well.
