Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The solvent with greater solubility in water has to be selected.
Concept Introduction:
Hydrogen bonding: The attractive interactions between hydrogen atom bonded to an atom of high electronegativity (most commonly O or N) and a lone pair of electrons on another atom of electrons on another atom of high electronegativity (again, most commonly O or N).
Solubility: Interaction of polar compound with water occurs by hydrogen bonding formation between compounds and water.
Hydrogen-bond donors: The hydrogen atom that is attached to the high electronegative atom participates in hydrogen bond. Thus, that Hydrogen atom is known as hydrogen-bond donors.
Hydrogen-bond acceptor: The atom (high electronegative atom with lone pairs) to which the hydrogen atom is participated in hydrogen bond.
