Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: Difference in solubilities of benzoic acid and 4-hydroxyacetanilide in aqueous sodium hydroxide, sodium bicarbonate, and water should be explained.

Concept introduction: Solubility is the property of a substance that enables it to dissolve in solvents. This property depends on the physical and chemical properties of solute and solvent. It also depends on the temperature and pressure of other substances present in the solution.

Explain why benzocaine precipitates during the neutralization.
Propose a method to separate a mixture containing phenol, benzoic acid, naphthalene, and p-nitroaniline. Phenol is soluble in sodium hydroxide solution but insoluble in neutral water or sodium bicarbonate solution. Benzoic acid is soluble in either sodium hydroxide or sodium bicarbonate solutions. Write out the structures of the molecules in your scheme.
You have a mixture of an aryl halide and a carboxylic acid that you wish to separate (both are solids). Both are soluble in diethyl ether. Explain ALL the steps you would take to obtain the two compounds in pure form from your sample.
