Learning Outcomes At the end of this Topic, the learner will be able to; 1. Ability to differentiate between alcohols and phenols. 2. Ability to differentiate between primary, secondary and tertiary alcohols. Illustrate by writing names and formulas for three alcohols of each type. 3. Explain the trends in boiling points and solubilities of alcohols in water. 4. Describe the physical properties of alcohol. 5. Describe some uses of alcohol. 6. Describe polymerization, write equations for three polymerization reactions, explain two classes of polymers and naming three polymers commonly found in the classroom and give their uses or functions. 7. Give an example of a condensation reaction. Name the essential feature of monomers used in the condensation polymerizations. 8. Define nylon? Describe in your own words how nylon is prepared. 9. Define carboxylic acids. Write structural formals for five carboxylic acids. 10. Define esters. Write structural formulas for four esters. Study Questions Task 1 : Read section 27-9 Alcohols and phenols and answer questions 1 3 (a) What do you understand about alcohols and phenols? (b) How do they differ? (c ) Why are alcohols and phenols be viewed as derivatives of hydrocarbons? Task 2 : Can you differentiate between primary, secondary and tertiary alcohols? Illustrate by writing names and formulas for three alcohols of each type. Task 3 : Refer to Table 27-8. Explain the trends in boiling points and solubilities of alcohols in water.
