Chapter 16, Problem 16.60GP
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

It should be determined that which of the two amines, decylamine or ethylamine have more soluble in water.

Concept introduction:

Amines are the derivatives of ammonia (NH3) with one or more of the hydrogens replaced with a substituent such as an alkyl group.

Depending on the number of carbon side chain of the nitrogen, different types of amines can form.

Fundamentals of General, Organic, and Biological Chemistry, Books a la Carte Edition (8th Edition), Chapter 16, Problem 16.60GP

Hydrogen bond is an attractive force established between hydrogen atom attached to a highly electronegative element and another highly electronegative element of the same or different molecule.

High solubility is expected when hydrogen bonds form between solute and solvent molecule.

Solubility will decrease with increase in alkyl groups in a compound.
