(a)
Interpretation:
The compound that is more soluble in water among ethyl chloride (C2 H5 Cl) or ethanol (C2 H5 OH) should be identified.
Concept introduction:
Solubility depends on the solvent and solute having same intermolecular bonds. Hence, the polar compounds are soluble in a polar solvent and nonpolar compounds are soluble in non-polar solvents.
(b)
Interpretation:
The compound that is more soluble in water among ammonia (NH3 )or phosphine (PH3 ) should be identified.
Concept introduction:
Solubility depends on the solvent and solute having same intermolecular bonds. Hence, the polar compounds are soluble in a polar solvent and nonpolar compounds are soluble in non-polar solvents.
(c)
Interpretation:
The compound that is more soluble in water among heptanoic acid(CH3 (CH2 )5 COOH) or propionic acid(CH3 CH2 COOH)should be identified.
Concept introduction:
Solubility depends on the solvent and solute having same intermolecular bonds. Hence, the polar compounds are soluble in a polar solvent and nonpolar compounds are soluble in non-polar solvents.
(d)
Interpretation:
The compound that is more soluble in water among iodine trichloride or sodium iodide should be identified.
Concept introduction:
Solubility depends on the solvent and solute having same intermolecular bonds. Hence, the polar compounds are soluble in a polar solvent and nonpolar compounds are soluble in non-polar solvents.

- 6. Ethanoic acid (CH3COOH) has a much lower vapor pressure than ethanol (CH3CH2OH). What is the most reasonable explanation? (A) The polarizability of two oxygen atoms increases the London forces of attraction in ethanoic acid compared with ethanol. (B) Hydrogen bonding in ethanoic acid is the strongest attractive force and is mainly responsible for the observed data. (C) Both ethanol and ethanoic acid have an – OH, so the difference is the dipole of the second oxygen that increases the attractive forces. (D) Ethanol has an - OH group and can hydrogen bond; therefore, the London forces must cause the effect.arrow_forwardSodium stearate, a product of fatty acid and strong base, has the following structure.
