Can you form a homogenous solution between ionic compounds like LiCl and vegetable oil? Why or why not? Explain your reasoning using thermodynamic equations or values to support your answer (hint: think of ΔHsolution = ΔHsolute + ΔHsolvent + ΔHmixture and the types of IMFs that can form between solute-solute, solvent-solvent, and solute-solvent particles. Also, it would be helpful to compare IMFs between solute-solute, solvent-solvent, and solute-solvent particles for water and vegetable oil as a solvent.

Expert Solution
Introduction

When two or more pure sunstanc are combined together , the resulting mixture will be either homogenous or heterogenous.

A homogenous solution contains the solvent and solute in the same phase and are miscible.

Heterogenous solutions are those in which the components are different phases and form two layers in solution.
