Based on solute - solvent interactions, arrange the following in order of increasing solubility in n - octane and explain.Cyclohexane, KCl, CH_(3)OH, CH_(3)CN. |

Answer» Solution :n - octane is a non - polar solvent. Therefore, the solubility of a non - polar SOLUTE is more than that of a polar solute in the n - octane as like dissolves in like. The order of increasing POLARITY is : Cyclohexane `lt CH_(3)CN lt CH_(3)OH lt KCl` Therefore, the order of increasing solubility is : `KCl lt CH_(3)OH lt CH_(3)CN lt` Cyclohexane. |
