Which of the following will be most soluble in octane?

Chemistry
1 answer:
natima [27]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

CH3CH3CH2CH3

Explanation:

Octane is a non-polar compound. It is a hydrocarbon with 8-carbon length along its chain.

It belongs to a special group of hydrocarbons called alkanes.

What makes a substance soluble in another?

   It is a common phrase that  "like dissolves like". This is applicable to solubility of substances in another.

  • A polar solvent will freely and easily dissolve a polar solute. For example, water and salt.
  • A non-polar solvent will also dissolve a non-polar solute. This case, hydrocarbons will dissolve themselves.
  • The first option is a butane, a 4-carbon length hydrocarbon which will be dissolved in octane.
  • Both compounds are non-polar.

The conversion of acetyl chloride to methyl acetate occurs via the following two-step mechanism: Reaction sequence of acetyl chl
Svetlanka [38]

If the concentration of acetyl chloride  is increased ten times the rate of reaction is increased ten times.

The conversion of acetyl chloride to methyl acetate is a substitution reaction. Recall that a substitution reaction is one in which a moiety in a molecule is replaced by another.

In this reaction, the CH3O- ion replaces the chloride ion. In the first step, the CH3O- ion attacks the substrate in a slow step. This creates a tetrahedral intermediate. Loss of the chloride ion yields the  methyl acetate product.

The rate determining step is the formation of the tetrahedral intermediate. Since the reaction is first order in the acetyl chloride, if its concentration is increased ten times the rate of reaction is increased ten times.

Which of the following molecules would exhibit only London forces?a)CH4, BH3, and CCl4b)H2O, NH3, and CCl4c)PH3, NH3, and CCl4
Alex787 [66]

Answer:

a)CH₄, BH₃, and CCl₄

Explanation:

<u>London dispersion forces:- </u>

The bond for example, in the molecule is F-F, which is non-polar in nature because the two fluorine atoms have same electronegativity values.

The intermolecular force acting in the molecule are induced dipole-dipole forces or London Dispersion forces / van der Waals forces which are the weakest intermolecular force.

Out of the given options, H₂O , NH₃ exhibits hydrogen bonding which is:-

<u>Hydrogen bonding:- </u>

Hydrogen bonding is a special type of the dipole-dipole interaction and it occurs between hydrogen atom that is bonded to highly electronegative atom which is either fluorine, oxygen or nitrogen atom.

Thus option B and C rules out.

<u>Hence, the correct option which represents the molecules which would exhibit only London forces is:- a)CH₄, BH₃, and CCl₄</u>
