Answer : The compound that would be most soluble in water is CH3CH2CH2OH
Explanation :
Water is a polar solvent and can dissolve polar molecules. This is based on the principle "Like dissolves like".
Among the given molecules, CH3CH2CH2CH3 is a hydrocarbon known as butane. All hydrocarbons are non polar. Therefore this compound will not be soluble in water.
The remaining compounds are polar, but Ch3CH2CH2OH shows greater solubility in water owing to presence of hydrogen bonding.
Hydrogen bonding is a type of intermolecular force that gets formed when a compound has hydrogen atom directly attached to highly electro-negative N, F or O atom.
When CH3CH2CH2OH is dissolved in water, it forms hydrogen bonds with water molecules. Due to this hydrogen bonding, the molecule shows greater solubility.
Therefore CH3CH2CH2OH is the most soluble compound in water
Answer:
ΔG = -6.5kJ/mol at 500K
Explanation:
We can find ΔG of a reaction using ΔH, ΔS and absolute temperature with the equation:
ΔG = ΔH - TΔS
Computing the values in the problem:
ΔG = ?
ΔH = 2kJ/mol
T = 500K
And ΔS = 0.017kJ/(K•mol)
Replacing:
ΔG = 2kJ/mol - 500K*0.017kJ/(K•mol)
ΔG = 2kJ/mol - 8.5kJ/mol
<h3>ΔG = -6.5kJ/mol at 500K</h3>
Answer:
induced dipole-dipole forces or London Dispersion forces / van der Waals forces.
Explanation:
Hexane is non-polar in nature. This is due to :
The bond in the molecule is C-H, which is non-polar in nature because the carbon and the hydrogen having very similar electronegativity values.
Hexane is also symmetric.
The intermolecular force acting in the molecule of the hexane are induced the dipole-dipole forces or London Dispersion forces / van der Waals forces.
Helium only possesses two valence electrons, while the other noble gasses posses eight
