There are three parts of the name here you have to look at in order to determine the type of bond: 'oct', 'an', and 'ol'. The first part (oct) is a prefix for 8. The 'an' means that is is an Alkene (only single bonds between the Carbons). 'Ol' means that it is an alcohol (an OH is bonded somewhere on the molecule). Also, because there are only non-metals involved here, it will have covalent (electron sharing) bonds. So it has covalent bonds with single bonds in between each carbon.
The molar heat of combustion of octanol is 5294
you tell me
no it isn't. Since the molecule has over 7 carbon atoms it will not dissolve. Also, the Solubility of octanol is really small.
This bond is ionic.
C2H2 is a carbon bond. This particular type of carbon bond is referred to as a triple bond, as it contains two pi bonds and a sigma bond.
The only intermolecular "bond" would be hydrogen "bonds". More appropriately, perhaps, one might as about the intermolcular "forces" in octanol. Since this is a primary alcohol, it will have hydrogen bonds (the strongest) and it will have London dispersion forces also.
1-octanol is an alcohol, so it has an OH group attached to the first C atom. (C8H17OH) 1-octene is an alkene, which has a double bond between the first and second C atoms. (C8H16)

"Octanol is not the most energy efficient fuel. Butanol is. Octanol gives out 8691.34J of energy per gram. Butanol gives out 15521.21J of energy per gram" Please state your source.
you tell me
water is polar and immiscible with the non-polar octanol.
no it isn't. Since the molecule has over 7 carbon atoms it will not dissolve. Also, the Solubility of octanol is really small.
Electrons are shared in a type of bond known as covalent. This type of bond is also considered a chemical bond.
You can use Isoamyl alcohol instead of octanol. both of them are anti-foaming agents and facilitate separation of phases after centifugation.
Assuming there is water present, I would expect the product to be a (roughly equal) mixture of 2-octanol and 3-octanol.
