• Resumen

  • A procedure for the study of structural differences and intermolecular attraction between ethanol and 1-butanol based in laboratory work is described. This study provides comparisons of data retrieved from both a determination of boiling point and gas chromatography traces for the mixture. The methodology reported here should provide instructors with an investigation that functions within a molecular structure unit, and provides the students with valuable insight into intermolecular forces.
