Question
Chapter 17, Problem 85P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The ability of soap to dissolve nonpolar hydrocarbons in a polar solvent like H2O should be explained.
Concept Introduction:
The solubility of a molecule depends on the polarity of the solvent and molecule that means like dissolve like. In other words, the polar molecule is soluble in polar solvent only and in non-polar solvents, the soluble molecule will be non-polar in nature.
