Which among the following compounds has highest melting point?
1 tert-Butyl alcohol
2 n-Butyl alcohol
3 Isobutyl alcohol
4 sec-Butyl alcohol
Explanation:
tert - Butyl alcohol has a much higher melting point becuase of its symmetrical close packed structure than remaining.

Assertion : Methyl alcohol is more volatile than water. Reason : The oxygen containing angle is maximum in water than methanol.
1 Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation of the Assertion.
2 Both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not the correct explanation of the Assertion.
3 Assertion is correct but Reason is incorrect.
4 Assertion is incorrect but Reason is correct.
Explanation:
In the case of methanol \(\left(\mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{OH}\right)\) and water \(\left(\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}\right)\),the oxygen atom is \(\mathrm{sp}^{3}\) hybridized. The larger size of the \(\mathrm{CH}_{3}\) group in methanol compared to a single hydrogen atom results in greater steric hindrance. While there are lone pair-lone pair repulsions, these are outweighed by the steric hindrance from the larger \(\mathrm{CH}_{3}\) group. As a result, the angle between the oxygen atom and other atoms in methanol is greater compared to that in water. So the option (3) is correct.

Which of the following has lowest boiling point?
1 p-Nitrophenol
2 m-Nitrophenol
3 o-Nitrophenol
4 Phenol
Explanation:
o-Nitrophenol has intramolecular H- bonding. So, B.P. is low.

Select the incorrect option from the following regarding the physical properties of alcohols and phenols.
1 The boiling points of alcohols and phenols are higher in comparison to hydrocarbons, ethers, haloalkanes and haloarenes of comparable molecular masses.
2 Ethanol and propane have comparable boiling points but differ only in the molecular masses.
3 The - OH group in alcohols and phenols is involved in the intermolecular hydrogen bonding.
4 The trend of boiling points is ethanol \(>\) methoxymethane > propane.
Explanation:
Ethanol and propane have different boiling points but comparable molecular masses. Ethanol has higher boiling point than propane because of H - bonding.
