ANSWER:
Problem PROBLEM 2-7
Circle the member of each pair that is more soluble in water.
Step by step solution
Step 1 of 5
Polar solutes dissolve in polar solvent and non polar solutes dissolve in the non - polar solvents.
Water is a polar solvent. Hence, polar solute and polar solvents are more dissolved in water.
a)
The given compounds are as follows.
- Diethyl ether
- n - Pentane
Diethyl ether is more polar than n - pentane. Hence, diethyl ether is more soluble in water.
Therefore, is more soluble in water.
