Interpretation: The solubility of
Concept Introduction:A solution is a mixture of solute and solvent. The solubility of solute in solvent depends on the interaction between solute and solvent. It also depends on the polarity of molecules also. As the polar and ionic compounds are soluble in polar solvents whereas the non-polar compounds are soluble in non-polar solvents such as organic solvents. Therefore, it is said to be “Like dissolves Like”.

Anthracene is soluble in organic solvent as it is a non-polar compound.
Explanation of Solution
Anthracene is an aromatic hydrocarbon which is composed of C and H atoms. The structural formula of Anthracene can be shown as below:
Since there is no other functional group in the molecule therefore it is a non-polar molecule and is soluble in a non-polar solvent.

Answer to Problem 6E
Phenol is soluble water as it is a polar compound.
Explanation of Solution
Phenol is an aromatic hydrocarbon which is composed of C and H atoms with −OH group. The structural formula of phenol can be shown as below:
The −OH group can form hydrogen bond with water molecule therefore it is soluble in water.
