Question
Chapter 10, Problem 10.22CP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The observed polarity of Ethyl acetate has to be given from the electrostatic potential map.
Concept Introduction:
Bond polarity and Electronegativity:
Bond polarity is the extent with which the polar nature is determined by the relative electronegativities of the bonded atoms.
Electronegativity is the ability of atom in a molecule ion to attract the electrons to itself.
If the bond is non-polar then the bonded atoms has equal electronegativities.
If the electronegativities of the bonded atoms are unequal then the bond is said to be more polarized towards the more electronegative atom.
Expert Solution & Answer
Explanation of Solution
From the given electrostatic potential diagram,
The Oxygen atom is electron rich (red colour) due to its high electronegativity.
The other atoms are electron deficient (blue colour) due to its less electronegative nature.
Conclusion
The observed polarity of Ethyl acetate was given from the electrostatic potential map.

(b) Is theacetone molecule polar or nonpolar? (c) What kinds ofintermolecular attractive forces exist between acetone molecules?(d) 1-Propanol (CH3CH2CH2OH) has a molecularweight that is very similar to that of acetone, yet acetoneboils at 56.5 °C and 1-propanol boils at 97.2 °C. Explain thedifference.
Would you expect butanone, CH;COCH;CH3 where the CO is a double bond, to have a higher or
lower boiling point than acetone? Explain your reasoning.
Propanol, CH3CH2CH2OH, has a molar mass of 60.1 g/mol and a boiling point of 97.4°C. Use
intermolecular forces to explain why propanol has a higher boiling point than butane or
acetone.
