. Consider the two molecules shown here. 1-butanol (1)- 7.3g/100ml and butyric acid (2)- miscible The solubilities of each in water is given. What is “solubility”? What does the solubility value given for (1) here mean? Please explain, based on their structures, why the solubility of (2) is greater than the solubility of (1) in water. For a complete answer, you should start with the types of IMFs involved in the different parts of the dissolving process. You should also use the kind of reasoning from class regarding the contributions to DHsolution and (briefly) the roles of energy and entropy in dissolving a solute in a solvent.
