(a) They are structural isomers. The given compounds have the same molecular formula but they differ in the position of the functional group (here ketone group: first one at C-3 and second one at C-2 positions).
(b) They are geometrical isomers. Compounds having the same molecular formula, the same constitution, and the sequence of covalent bonds, but with the different relative position of their atoms in space are called geometrical isomers.
(c) They are resonance contributors because they differ in the position of electrons but not atoms.

Due to the presence of –OH group, alcohols form hydrogen-bonds with water but hydrocarbons cannot form hydrogen-bonds with water.
Due to inter moleculer hydrogen bonding between Alcohol and water molecular they remain tightly bounded to water molecules and have higher solubility. Whereas in case of hydrocarbon there is no chance of hydrogen bonding.

4.32.
Sigma bond | Pi bond |
It is formed by axial overlap of the atomic orbitals. | It is formed by the sidewise overlap of the atomic orbitals. |
The bond is quite strong. | It is a comparatively weaker bond. |
Only one lobe of the p-orbitals is involved in the overlap. | Both lobes of the p-orbitals are involved in the overlap. |
Electron cloud of the molecular orbital is symmetrical around the inter-nuclear axis. | The electron cloud is not symmetrical |

4.31. The electron pair involved in sharing between two atoms during covalent bonding is called shared pair or bond pair. At the same time, the electron pair which is not involved in sharing is called lone pair of electrons.
For example: CH4 has 4 bond pairs but H2O has 2 bond pairs and 2 lone pairs.

Here, propanol undergoes intermolecular H-bonding because of the presence of -OH group while butane has no such property.
(intermolecular Hydrogen bonding in propanol)
Therefore, extra energy will be required to break those hydrogen bonds which in turn causes higher boiling point for propanol when compared to butane.

(a) Here, HO– acts as a nucleophile as it is an electron-rich species, i.e., it is a nucleus-seeking species.
(b) Here, –CN acts as a nucleophile as it is an electron-rich species, i.e., it is a nucleus-seeking species.
(c) CH3C+O acts as an electrophile as it is an electron deficient species.

Electrophiles: The name electrophiles mean electron loving. Electrophiles are electron deficient. They may be positive ions or neutral molecules.
Ex: H+, Cl+, Br+, NO2+, R3C+, RN2+, AlCl3, BF3
Nucleophiles: The name nucleophiles means 'nucleus loving' and indicates that it attacks the region of low electron density (positive centres) in a substrate molecule. They are electron rich they may be negative ions or neutral molecules.
Ex: Cl– Br–, CN–, OH–, RCR2–, NH3, RNH2, H2O, ROH etc.

Nitroethoxide ion (O2NCH2CH2O–) is more stable than ethoxide ion (CH3CH2O–) due to -I effect of nitro group which decreases the negative charge of oxide ion of nitroethoxide ion leading to stability. In contrast, CH3CH2 has +I-effect. It, therefore, tends to intensify the -ve charge and hence destabilizes it.

The structures of all isomeric alcohols of C5H12O are given below:
Naming is done by the conventional method. The -OH group is attached on the first carbon.
(b) 3-Methylbutan-1-ol
Butane is the longest chain and methyl is the substituent group.
(c) 3-Methylbutan-1-ol
the longest chain is butane and conventional naming method is used.
(d) 2,2-Dimethylpropan-1-ol
Isomer is made by transforming the principal carbon into tertiary type. The longest chain is butane and named accordingly.
(e) Pentan-2-ol
the longest chain is pentane and the numbering is chosen from the minimum position.
Butane is the longest chain, further numbering is done b
