    DAT DAT Organic Chemistry: Alkoxymercuration with Methanol Practice Question | DAT Destroyer | OAT Destroyer | Dr. Jim Romano

    Can you solve this DAT Organic Chemistry question before revealing the answer? This problem tests an important DAT concept: alkoxymercuration-demercuration. The trick is recognizing what happens when CH₃OH (methanol) is used instead of water. Many students automatically think "alcohol," but...

    Freezing Point

    Find the freezing point of a 2.0m solution of CH3OH in chloroform, CHCl3. The normal freezing point of chloroform is -63.5°C. The kf for chloroform is 4.7°C/m. Why wouldn't this be (-63.5 - (4.7x2x2))?? Wouldn't the methanol dissolve in Chloroform since they are both polar and like dissolves like?
