Chapter 17, Problem 25E

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The explanation for “like dissolves like” and magnitude for each solution has to be discussed.

Concept Introduction:

The bond formed by the atoms which have different electronegativities and have a large dipole moment are known as polar solvents.

For example: water

The bonds which are formed by the atoms which have same electronegativities are known as non-polar solvents.

For example: gasoline, hexane etc.
