Interpretation:
The compound that is more soluble in benzene than in water should be identified.
Concept introduction:
Like dissolves like principle: ‘Like dissolves like’ principle says that polar compounds including ionic compound should be more soluble in polar solvent. Likewise, non–polar compound should be more soluble in non–polar solvent.
Polar molecule: Polar molecules have large dipole moments.
Non-Polar molecules: Non-polar molecules have bonded atoms with similar electronegativity results to have zero dipole moments.
Solubility is the quantity of solute (solid, liquid or gas) that will dissolve in a given amount of solvent (solid, liquid or gas) at definite temperature and pressure. Solubility depends on the physical and chemical property of solvent, solute and concentration of the solution.

- In some regions of the southwest United States, the water is very hard. For example, in Las Cruces, New Mexico, the tap water contains about 560 g of dissolved solids per milliliter. Reverse osmosis units are marketed in this area to soften water. A typical unit exerts a pressure of 8.0 atm and can produce 45 L water per day. a. Assuming all of the dissolved solids are MgCO3 and assuming a temperature of 27C, what total volume of water must be processed to produce 45 L pure water? b. Would the same system work for purifying seawater? (Assume seawater is 0.60 M NaCl.)arrow_forwardIce Cream A rock salt (NaCl), ice, and water mixture isused to cool milk and cream to make homemade icecream.
