(a)
Interpretation:
Isopropyl alcohol as a solvent is polar or non-polar is to be predicted.
Concept introduction:
The solubility of two substances dependents on the “like dissolves like” principle that means polar substances dissolve in polar solvents and non-polar substances will dissolve in non-polar solvents. The water-soluble compounds are hydrophilic and water-insoluble compounds are hydrophobic.
(b)
Interpretation:
Pentane as a solvent is polar or non-polar is to be predicted.
Concept introduction:
The solubility of two substances dependents on the “like dissolves like” principle that means polar substances dissolve in polar solvents and non-polar substances will dissolve in non-polar solvents. The water-soluble compounds are hydrophilic and water-insoluble compounds are hydrophobic.
(c)
Interpretation:
Xylene as a solvent is polar or non-polar is to be predicted.
Concept introduction:
The solubility of two substances dependents on the “like dissolves like” principle that means polar substances dissolve in polar solvents and non-polar substances will dissolve in non-polar solvents. The water-soluble compounds are hydrophilic and water-insoluble compounds are hydrophobic.
(d)
Interpretation:
Trichloroethane as a solvent is polar or non-polar is to be predicted.
Concept introduction:
The solubility of two substances dependents on the “like dissolves like” principle that means polar substances dissolve in polar solvents and non-polar substances will dissolve in non-polar solvents. The water-soluble compounds are hydrophilic and water-insoluble compounds are hydrophobic.
