a) If a molecule can hydrogen bond, does it guarantee that it will have a higher boiling point than a molecule that cannot? Explain why or why not.
b) If a molecule has a stronger dipole moment than another molecule, does it guarantee it will have a higher boiling point? Explain why or why not.
c) Sketch your prediction of a gas chromatogram for a mixture of propan-2-ol and hexan-2-one in your lab notebook. Label the axis and the peaks. Explain the elution order in terms of intermolecular forces and the factors that affect the interactions between molecules.
