Hey! Please what is the density for 1-hexanol as liquid at normal pressure...ive been lookin everywhere but the only thing I find is the VAPOR density!! Thx very very much for helping

Hi - A couple of good reference books to find information like this in is the CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics and the Merck Index.  According to the CRC, the density of 1-hexanol is 0.8136 g/mL at 20°C (referenced to water at 4°C), and the Merck Index gives it as 0.8153 g/mL at 25°C and 0.8082 g/mL at 35°C.  Neither of these references had the vapor density listed, so if I needed to find that, other than approximating it from the ideal gas law, I'd be in trouble!  What references did you find the vapor densities in?
 
Back to the ol' grind, I guess - Happy New Year!

Well actually ive been lookin for the density at google,altavista,yahoo...writng for example"1-hexanol density" gave me links with vapor density...Actually I have no book at home that could help me out with this...wierd...so I had 2 choices...Msn group or wait til next weeks class. I choosed Msn group on wich I can always trust ;P
So Im goin to buy that CRC book!

Your school library should have a copy, usually in the "Reference" section.  Here's a link to Amazon.com, which also has used copies available:
 
 
There is also the CRC Student Edition, which I find to be a little more practical in content.  Also, there is the Lange's Handbook of Chemistry, which lists the specific gravity as 0.822 at 15°C (referenced to water at 4°C).  As the name implies, Lange's contains chemistry data specifically, whereas the CRC contains a mixture of chemistry and physics data.
