JEE Mains · Chemistry · STD 12 - 7. Alcohol, phenol and ethers
Given below are two statements :
Statement I : Dimethyl ether is completely soluble in water. However, diethyl ether is soluble in water to a very small extent.
Statement II : Sodium metal can be used to dry diethyl ether and not ethyl alcohol.
In the light of given statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below
- A Statement I is false but Statement II are true
- B Both Statement I and Statement II are false
- C Statement I is true but Statement II is false
- D Both Statement I and Statement II are true
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) Both Statement I and Statement II are true
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
St-I : - St-I is correct because both given ether are soluble in water \(\rightarrow\) Di ethyl ether and butan-1-ol are miscible to almost same extent i.e., 7.5 and 9 gm per 100 ml water due to H -bonding St-II : - St. II is also correct because sodium metal is not used with…
