OR For a fair test, all alcohols need to be primary alcohols. (1) 3.3 3.3.1 The melting point of butan-1-ol will be higher.  Reasons:  The hydrogen bond between butan-1-ol molecules are stronger than between the butan-2-ol molecules, because the hydroxyl group is more exposed in the butan-1-ol than in the butan-2-ol, which causes the hydrogen bond to have a stronger influence.   More energy is required to weaken IM Forces between the butan-1-ol molecules, causing a higher melting point.   Straight chains have a higher melting point than branched chains. OR  Butan-1-ol has a larger surface area (chain length)  Therefore stronger IMF  More energy needed to overcome IMF Any TWO reasons (3) 3
Downloaded from hlayiso.com 10842 / 18 3.3.2 Butan-2-ol  Reasons:  If the hydroxyl group is on a terminal carbon atom, the intermolecular force (hydrogen bond) is stronger than when the –OH group is on the second carbon atom, where it is screened and has a smaller influence on the energy needed to cause a phase change (boil) in the second isomer, the butan-2-ol.   The boiling point of butan-2-ol will be lower and therefore the vapour pressure of butan-2-ol will be higher than the butan-1-ol. Less energy required to overcome the hydrogen bonds and to weaken the bonds.  Any TWO reasons (3) 3.3.3 Increase  (1) 3.3.4  Van der Waals forces (London forces) increase with an increase in molecular mass / chain length / size of molecule.   The longer the chain, the higher the boiling point, the stronger the London forces.  (2) 3.4 3.4.1 Polymerisation  (1) 3.4.2 H C CH2 CH2 CH2 CH2 CH2 CH2 CH2 CH2 CH3 3 n Ethene.  (1) 3.4.3 Any ONE use: Packaging material  Squeeze bottles Electrical insulation Industrial protective clothing Toys, etc. (1) [19] QUESTION 4 4.1 4.1.1 Compound X = C 3H5Br  (1) 4.1.2 Addition / hydrohalogenation  (1) 4.1.3 Propan-2-ol  (1) 4.1.4 An alcohol; where the hydroxyl group is attached to a carbon atom which is bonded to two other carbon atoms.  (1) 4.1.5 Prop-1-ene OR propene  (1) 4.1.6 Dehydrohalogenation  (1) 4

Decreasing the temperature from the equilibrium system favours the reverse reaction.  The reverse reaction is an exothermic reaction.
