(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.

- Although they have similar molecular masses (73 and 72 amu, respectively), the boiling point of butylamineis much higher (78C) than that of pentane (36C).Explain why.arrow_forwardImpure Compound X was found to have a melting point range of 106-114 oC. What do each of these numbers (104 and 112) represent?arrow_forwardAnsaid and Motrin belong to the group of drugs known as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Both are only slightly soluble in water, but one is a little more soluble than the other. Which of the drugs has the greater solubility in water?arrow_forward
- Please explain how 1-octanol is insoluble with water but soluble with hexane?arrow_forwardConsider this information regarding two compounds. Thallium azide: yellow crystalline solid; melting point = 330 C; slightly soluble in water, more soluble in hot water; insoluble in ethanol or diethyl ether. Camphene: colorless, cubic crystals; melting point = 51 C; boiling point = 159 C; insoluble in water; moderately soluble in ethanol; soluble in diethyl ether. (a) Is camphene an ionic or molecular compound? Explain your answer. (b) Is thallium azide an ionic or molecular compound? Explain your answer.arrow_forwardWhat is the solubility of benzoic acid in water at 10 degrees celcius?arrow_forward
- You have learned three different types of distillation (simple, fractional, steam). For each case below, explain which type of distillation would be most efficient in terms of time and separation. A. Separating 1-butanol from its constitutional isomer 2-butanol B. Separating limonene from lemon peel C. Separating ethanol from ethylene glycolarrow_forwardthe higher boiling point: 1-hexanol or 1-methoxypentane?arrow_forwardThe melting point of pure cinnqmic acid is 133-135c .according to your melting point composition diagram what happens to the melting point of cinnamon acid when it is contaminated with increasing amounts of urea (before the eutectic point is reached )?arrow_forward
- Arrange C2H6, CH3OH, CH3NH2, and CH3F in order of increasing boiling points. Justify your answer in terms of IMFs present in each molecule.arrow_forwardLinolenic acid (Table 10.2) and stearidonic acid are omega-3 fatty acids, unsaturated fatty acids that contain the first double bond located at C3, when numbering begins at the methyl end of the chain. Predict how the melting point of stearidonic acid compares with the melting points of linolenic and stearic acids. A current avenue of research is examining the use of soybean oil enriched in stearidonic acid as a healthier alternative to vegetable oils that contain fewer degrees of unsaturation.arrow_forward(a) Draw four compounds with molecular formula C6H12O, each containing at least one different functional group, (b) Predict which compound has the highest boiling point, and explain your reasoning.arrow_forward
