Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The reason due to which naphthalene cannot ionize in aqueous solution needs to be explained.

Concept Introduction:A solution is a mixture of solute and solvent. The solubility of solute in solvent depends on the interaction between solute and solvent. It also depends on the polarity of molecules also. As the polar and ionic compounds are soluble in polar solvents whereas the non-polar compounds are soluble in non-polar solvents such as organic solvents. Therefore it is said to be “Like dissolves Like”.
