The Total solution for NCERT class 6-12
Based on solute-solventinteractions, arrange the following in order of increasing solubility inn-octane and explain. Cyclohexane, KCl, CH3OH, CH3CN.
n-octane is a non-polar solvent.Therefore, the solubility of a non-polar solute is more than that of a polarsolute in the n-octane.
The order of increasing polarityis:
Cyclohexane < CH3CN< CH3OH < KCl
Therefore, the order ofincreasing solubility is:
KCl < CH3OH < CH3CN< Cyclohexane
