Is acetone the same as alcohol?

No, acetone is not the same as alcohol. Acetone is a type of solvent, while alcohol refers to a group of organic compounds that contain a hydroxyl group.


Acetone contains which functional group?

This is actually an organic chemistry question, but it is a Methyl Ketone.


Differentiation polarity of acetone and ethanol?

as ethanol is an alcohol containing polar group in its structure that is OH it is a polar group.As acetone is a carbonyl compound containig two CH3 groups which are non polar and Carbonyl group is slightly polar compared to alcoholic group so ethanol is highly polar than acetone


Why Acetone and chloroform are soluble in each other?

Acetone and chloroform are both polar solvents due to the presence of a carbonyl group (in acetone) and a chloro group (in chloroform), which allows them to form hydrogen bonds with each other. This intermolecular attraction leads to their solubility in each other.


Why acetone is more polar than ethylacetate?

The dipole moment in acetone is greater than in the acetate group and therefore acetone is more polar (polarity index of 5.1) than ethylacetate (polarity index 4.4).CH3COCH3 as opposed to CH3COOCH2CH3While both compounds contain a double bond to oxygen (as highlighted above), which creates a strong dipole moment (i.e. polarity in the molecule) the adjacent oxygen in the acetate group attracts electrons to itself reducing the electron density in the double bonded oxygen thereby reducing the molecule's polarity.

Is acetone packing group 111?

No, acetone is not classified as Packing Group I (PG I). It is classified as Packing Group II (PG II) under the United Nations classification system for hazardous materials, which indicates it has a moderate level of danger. Acetone is flammable and should be handled with care, but it is not considered as dangerous as substances in Packing Group I.

How many packing groups for dangerous goods?

Dangerous goods are categorized into three packing groups based on their level of hazard: Packing Group I (high danger), Packing Group II (medium danger), and Packing Group III (low danger). These groups help determine the appropriate packaging and labeling requirements to ensure safety during transport. The classification is essential for regulatory compliance and risk management in the handling of hazardous materials.


What functional group present in propannone?

Propanone (a.k.a. acetone) contains a ketone as a functional group as well as alkane hydrocarbons.
