Ethoxyethane is heavier than propanone and that will surely make a difference. The carbon-oxygen bond in ethers is less polarized than that in aldehydes and ketones. This is because the oxygen in ethers is attached to two electron pushing alkyl groups which account for the oxygen atom's electronegativity. Thus, dipole-dipole interactions are weaker in ethers giving them a lower boiling point than the corresponding aldehyde or ketone.

What is the boiling point of propanone if pressure of surface is 48 kilopascals?

The boiling point would be 35 degrees Celsius. Use a graph comparing vapor pressure to temperature, go to the point where propanone is at 48 kpa, and see what the temperature is.


Do ionic compounds have a irregular structure?

Propanone has a lower boiling point and evaporates faster.


WHY does propanone dry fast?

Propanone, also known as acetone, dries quickly because it has a low boiling point of around 56 degrees Celsius. This low boiling point allows it to evaporate rapidly at room temperature, leaving behind a dry surface. Additionally, propanone has a high volatility, which further contributes to its fast drying properties.

Why does 1-propanol have a higher boiling point than 2-propanol?

The compound is bigger. They all contain -OH branches but propanol has 3 carbons, whereas ethanol has 2 carbons, and methanol has 1 carbon. There are more intermolecular forces which increases boiling points.
