Chapter 13, Problem 13.13P

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Whether $\text{NaCl}$ or $\text{HCl}$ that is more soluble in ${\text{CH}}_3{\text{CH}}_2{\text{OCH}}_2{\text{CH}}_3$ is to be determined.

Concept introduction:

Solubility is the chemical property of any substance due to which it dissolves in other substances. It is measured in terms of the maximum amount of solute that can be dissolved in the given amount of solvent. It depends on the intermolecular forces. The stronger the intermolecular forces, the higher will be the solubility.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Whether ${\text{H}}_2\text{O}$ or ${\text{CH}}_3\text{CHO}$ that is more soluble in ${\text{CH}}_3{\text{CH}}_2{\text{OCH}}_2{\text{CH}}_3$ is to be determined.

(c)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Whether ${\text{MgBr}}_2$ or ${\text{CH}}_3{\text{CH}}_2\text{MgBr}$ is more soluble in ${\text{CH}}_3{\text{CH}}_2{\text{OCH}}_2{\text{CH}}_3$ is to be determined.
