C8H18O that is the formula.

H-c-c-c-c-c-c-c-c-h ( Basic structure before the addition of the other H atoms and the OH)

to each Carbon atom there is two H atoms attached to it on top and on the bottom, therefore each C atom makes 4 bonds. The last carbon on the right will have a OH rather then just a H atom on top. If done properly there should be seven H atoms on the top of the basic structure i gave bonded to the C atoms with the one OH on the last C atom on the right. On the bottom there should be eight H atoms bonded with the C atoms.

Depending on how much condensation is wanted, this can be C5H12O, H(CH2)5OH, or others. Since "1-pentanol" is specified, the second of these is probably better than the first.

Is octanol soluble in water?

no it isn't. Since the molecule has over 7 carbon atoms it will not dissolve. Also, the Solubility of octanol is really small.


How do you distinguish 1 octanol from 1 octene?

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)

Does hexane dissolve 1-octanol?

It should dissolve it fairly well, yes. Despite the hydroxyl group, octanol is still a lipophilic molecule so you'll get much better dissolution in a non-polar organic solvent than a polar one.
