Jessieee Posted March 16, 2005 Share Posted March 16, 2005 what is the approximate value of H bond strength in ethanol!? thxx... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BenSon Posted March 16, 2005 Share Posted March 16, 2005 Sorry but your post isn't very clear...re you talking about the O-H bonds? C-H? bonds or the bonds between the lone pair of electrons on an O of one molecule the H of another molecule? Maybe i could help you then... ~Scott Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Primarygun Posted March 16, 2005 Share Posted March 16, 2005 Ya, there are many hydrogen atoms bonded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jessieee Posted March 16, 2005 Author Share Posted March 16, 2005 oh, i am reli sorri that i didn't make myself clear.. i mean the bonds between the lone pair of electrons on an O of one molecule the H of another molecule.. lol.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FVT Posted March 18, 2005 Share Posted March 18, 2005 Water H2O is more polar than Ethanol. Ethanol is more stable. Are you asking about Hydrogen Bonding (Van Der Waals) in Water vs Ethanol? If so, then yes Water tend to have a higher hydrogen bonding "power" than do the Ethanol because in Ethanol, there is higher stability. Lower Vapor Pressure results from higher Inter Molecular Forces. Therefore, Water has Lower Vapor Pressure since the Hydrogen bonding in (assume PURE) water has higher H-bonding.
