Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The water soluble vitamin associated with scurvy is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
Solubility of any substance is determined by the nature of substance and the kind of forces of attraction it can make with the particular solvent. The concept of “like dissolves like” is applicable. The compounds that share similar kind of forces between their molecules are soluble with each other, that is, if the solvent has forces of attraction due to the polarity of the molecules and solute also has the similar kind of attractions then they are soluble into each other.
(b)
Interpretation:
The water soluble vitamin associated with beriberi disease is to be stated
Concept introduction:
Solubility of any substance is determined by the nature of substance and the kind of forces of attraction it can make with the particular solvent. The concept of “like dissolves like” is applicable. The compounds that share similar kind of forces between their molecules are soluble with each other, that is, if the solvent has forces of attraction due to the polarity of the molecules and solute also has the similar kind of attractions then they are soluble into each other.
(c)
Interpretation:
The water soluble vitamin associated with the Pernicious anemia disease is to be stated
Concept introduction:
Solubility of any substance is determined by the nature of substance and the kind of forces of attraction it can make with the particular solvent. The concept of “like dissolves like” is applicable. The compounds that share similar kind of forces between their molecules are soluble with each other, that is, if the solvent has forces of attraction due to the polarity of the molecules and solute also has the similar kind of attractions then they are soluble into each other.
(d)
Interpretation:
. The water soluble vitamin associated with the Pellagra disease is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
Solubility of any substance is determined by the nature of substance and the kind of forces of attraction it can make with the particular solvent. The concept of “like dissolves like” is applicable.
