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

Chemistry

algol [13]3 years ago
8 0

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

43.2 + 50.0 + 16.0= answer in correct amount of significant figures
Molodets [167]

Answer : The correct answer is 109.

Explanation :

Significant figure : It is defined as the each digits of a number have meaning or contribute to the value of the number.

The addition of given digits is,

43.2 + 50.0 + 16.0 = 109.2

As per the question, the given digits has 3 significant figures. But the answer after addition is 109.2 has 4 significant figures.

The addition rule of significant rule is the least precise number of significant figure in any number of the problem determines the number of significant figures in the answer.

Therefore, from the addition rule, the correct answer is 109.

The last answer choice us D. Adding more of the chemical will hear the water but only up to a certain temperature
enot [183]

D. Adding more of the chemical will heat the water but only up to a certain temperature

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Chemical changes are changes in the process that produce new substances that are different from the initial/ forming substances. Chemical changes are usually known as chemical reactions. So there are products/reactions and reactants and there is a change in the molecule/particle

The chemical reaction is usually followed by the release of heat, gas, change in color, precipitate substance etc

The heat that occurs in the addition of chemicals is caused by the reaction with water. But there is a constant rise in temperature when water reaches <em>its maximum capacity to react with these chemicals.</em>

Evidenced by the addition of 15 g and 20 g of chemicals, the temperature changes are constant

What is the “advantage” and “disadvantage” when there is a mechanical advantage less than 1?
tia_tia [17]

Answer: Force disadvantage and distance advantage

Explanation: When mechanical advantage is less than one the force of the strength decreases because input force is greater than output force.

The distance increases ie the object is moving over a long distance.

Example when fishing with a long fishing rod the force applied to move the fish from the water is greater than the weight of the fish itself. The advantage of using the long fishing pole is that the distance over which the fish travels is greatly increased.

Hope this helps. It took me about half an hour before I could get this answer from my various searches. The idea might not be clear but this was what I was able to understand.
