Interpretation The reasons why methanol and ethanol are soluble in water whereas octanol is poorly soluble have to be determined.
Concept introduction:
‘Like dissolves like’ principle said that polar compounds including ionic compound should be more soluble in polar solvent. Likewise, non-polar compound should be more soluble in non-polar solvent. Other hand, compounds with similar intermolecular force capability to soluble in one another because solute-solvent interactions are similar signification to the solute-solute interaction.
‘ The set of repulsive and attractive force between molecules that result from the polarity between neighboring molecules is represented as intermolecular force. There are four types of intermolecular forces:
- Hydrogen bonding
- London dispersion force
- Ion – dipole force
- Dipole – Dipole force
Hydrogen bond: Hydrogen is bonded to strong electronegative atom like oxygen, nitrogen etc.

- The osmotic pressure of an aqueous solution of a certain protein was measured to determine the protein’s molar mass. The solution contained 3.50 mg of protein dissolved in sufficient water to form 5.00 mL of solution. The osmotic pressure of the solution at 25 °C was found to be 1.54 torr. Treating the protein as a nonelectrolyte (The Van't Hoff Factor = 1), calculate its molar mass. R = 0.0821 L•atm• mol-1• K-1 (Note: Don't forget to convert your pressure to atmospheres and temperature to kelvin if you use this version of the gas constant.)arrow_forwardB-Galactosidase (ß-gal) is a hydrolase enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of ß-galactosides into monosaccharides. A 0,421 g sample of ß-galactosidase is dissolved in water to make 0.133 L of solution, and the osmotic pressure of the solution at 25 'C' is found to be 0.674 mbar. Calculate the molecular mass of ß-galactosidase. molecular mass: TOOLS *10* g/mol C Carrow_forwardA 365 µM solution of a dye molecule, Rhodamine 6G, dissolved in methanol is allowed to sit open to the air such that the volume of the solution is reduced to 43% of its original volume due to evaporation of methanol. Assuming that no dye molecules are lost during the evaporation process, what is the concentration of the dye in the remaining ethanol after evaporation?arrow_forward
- 24.9 g of an unknown molecular solute is dissolved in 5.01 moles of 1,2-ethanediol (C2H6O2), causing the freezing point of 1,2-ethanediol to decrease by 3.32 °C. Calculate the molar mass of the solute. For 1,2-ethanediol, the molar mass is 62.07 g/mol and Kf = 3.11 °C/m.arrow_forwardYou have a flask weighing 121.214 g. To this flask, you added 25.00 mL KCl(aq) solution. You weigh the flask, it is now 150.234 g. You then take the flask to a heating source and evaporate all solvents. When the flask cool down to room temperature, you weigh the flask again, it is 124.231 g. What is the molality of the KCI (aq) solution? The amus for K is 39 and Cl is 35.5, respectivelyarrow_forwardSoaps consist of compounds such as sodium stearate, CH3(CH2)16COO-Na + , that have both hydrophobic and hydrophilic parts. Consider the hydrocarbon part of sodium stearate to be the “tail” and the charged part to be the “head.”Grease is a complex mixture of (mostly) hydrophobic compounds. Which part of sodium stearate, head or tail, is most likely to bind to grease?arrow_forward
- Ethylene glycol, CH2OHCH2OH is a liquid at room temperature and dissolves into water in all proportions. However, butane, C4H10, is a gas at room temperature and is insoluble in water. How do you account for these differences?arrow_forwardA supersaturated solution of sucrose (C12H22O11) is made by dissolving sucrose in hot water and slowly letting the solution cool to room temperature.
