Chapter 21.2, Problem 12R

To determine

To Explain: Whether all solutes dissolve to the same extent is the same solvent.

Answer to Problem 12R

No, all solutes do not dissolve to same extent in the same solution.

Explanation of Solution

Solute and solvent molecules are connected with each other due to intermolecular attraction. Solubility of any solute depends upon this. These attractions change with each solute-solvent pair and depend upon temperature.So, all the solutes do not dissolve to same extent.

Conclusion:

Intermolecular attraction, temperature is different for all solutes and due to this reason, all solute do not dissolve to the same extent.
