Which one of the following compounds will be least soluble in water?

Chemistry

algol [13]3 years ago

Water is a polar solvent. Since, 'Like dissolves like' a polar compound will be most soluble in water whereas a non-polar compound will be the least soluble.

The increasing order of polarity for the given organic compounds is:-

CH3OCH3 < CH3NH2 < CH3CHO < CH3CH2OH

Ether is the least polar and hence least soluble in water.

Answer: The correct answer is (A).

Explanation :

CH_3OCH_3 that is dimethyl ether will be least soluble in water because extent of hydrogen bonding interaction with water molecules are weakest in comparison to other listed options.

Where as :

  • In CH_3CH_2OH that is ethanol,in which extent of inter-molecular hydrogen bonding with water molecules will be highest due to the presence of polar (-OH) group.Where as (-NH_2) group is less polar than that of the (-OH) group.
  • in CH_3NH_2 that is methyl amine in which extent of hydrogen bonding will higher than than that of the CH_3CHO that is ethanal. This is due to presence of two hydrogen atoms in primary amine which are available for inter-molecular hydrogen bonding with water molecules.

So, the order  of solubility from least soluble to highly soluble compound in water will be:

CH_3OCH_3

Question 15 (1 point)
Digiron [165]

Answer:

Atoms are electrically neutral because the number of protons, which carry a 1+ charge, in the nucleus of an atom is equal to the number of electrons, which carry a 1- charge, in the atom. The result is that the total positive charge of the protons cancels out the total negative charge of the electrons so that the net charge of the atom is zero. Most atoms, however, can either gain or lose electrons; when they do so, the number of electrons becomes different from the number of protons in the nucleus. The resulting charged species is called an ion.

Cations and anions

When a neutral atom loses one or more electrons, the total number of electrons decreases while the number of protons in the nucleus remains the same. The result is that the atom becomes a cation—an ion with a net positive charge.

The opposite process can also occur. When a neutral atom gains one or more electrons, the number of electrons increases while the number of protons in the nucleus remains the same. The result is that the atom becomes an anion—an ion with a net negative charge. We can illustrate this by examining some very simple cations and anions, those formed when a single hydrogen atom loses or gains an electron.

Note: Hydrogen is actually somewhat unusual in that it readily forms both cations and anions. Most elements much prefer to form only one or the other. In terms of its electron configuration, can you explain why hydrogen can form both cations and anions? Feel free to post in the comments at the end of the article!

The air inside a bicycle tire pump has 27 joules of heat conducted away from while 77.9 joules of work done are being done on it
tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

51 J

Explanation:

The air inside a bicycle tire pump has 27 joules of heat conducted away. By convention, when heat is released, it takes the negative sign, so Q = -27 J.

77.9 joules of work done are being done on the air inside a bicycle tire pump. By convention, when work is being done on the system, it takes the positive sign, so W = 77.9 J

We can calculate the change in the internal energy (ΔU) using the following expression.

ΔU = Q + W

ΔU = (-27 J) + 77.9 J

ΔU =  51 J
