The difference between Biphenyl and naphthalene is that Biphenyl is two phenyl groups linked by a single bond from a carbon on one phenyl group to another. Naphthalene shares two carbon atoms in between two phenyl groups.
Both are bicyclic aromatic solid compounds insoluble in water
The chemical formula for biphenyl is C12H10
biphenyl is soluble in ethanol and also in most of organic solvents
4-acetyl biphenyl
A biphenyl is a substituted or otherwise altered version of the hydrocarbon C12H10, such as PCBs.
NaI has ions and has strong electrostatic force of attraction, hence high melting point. Naphthalene has weak van der Waals forces of attraction between the molecules and hence have low melting point.
the melting point of biphenyl is 70 degrees Celsius.
The naphthalene solid has a significant vapor pressure, as indicated by its strong odor. The solid naphthalene will evaporate, decreasing the mass of solid naphthalene present.m collected + m evaporated = Delta m
Biphenyl has equal charges on both benzene rings, this material is non polar
No naphthalene is an organic aromatic hydrocarbon.
An aminobiphenyl is an amine derivative of biphenyl.
