a) For each of the substances that dissolved in water, what forces exist between the molecules of the solute and the molecules of the solvent? Be specific. b) Draw structures showing hydrogen bonding (or ion-dipole forces if you choose NaCl) for three of the solutes that dissolved in water. (Show hydrogen bonding between appropriate atoms of solvent and solute with dashed lines

No need to fill in this box.
|
What do you see happen? Is the solute soluble in water? It is a clear solution with a separation of liquids. It is not soluble. Two layers
|
sodium chloride
|
What do you see happen? Is the solute soluble in cyclohexane? It showed a clear liquid with the solute seen at the bottom. So, it is not soluble |
What do you see happen? Is the solute soluble in water? It has air bubble and a clear solution. It is suspended. It is soluble |
sugar (sucrose)
|
What do you see happen? Is the solute soluble in cyclohexane? It showed a clear liquid with the solute seen at the bottom. So, it is not soluble |
What do you see happen? Is the solute soluble in water? It is a clear solution, so it is soluble |
Ethanol
|
What do you see happen? Is the solute soluble in cyclohexane? It is a cloudy solution with a separation of liquids. It is not soluble |
What do you see happen? Is the solute soluble in water? It has cloudy solution, but it is soluble |
isopropyl alcohol
|
What do you see happen? Is the solute soluble in cyclohexane? It is just a clear solution. So, it is soluble |
What do you see happen? Is the solute soluble in water? It is a clear solution, so it is soluble |
1-butanol
