Categorize each of the following as to which solvent would be best to dissove each solute.
Cu(NO3)2
CS2
CH3OH
CH3CH2CH2OH
HCl
C6H6
Water
Hexane (C6H14
A solution is prepared by mixing 50.0 mL pentane (C5H12, d=0.63 g/mL) with 45.0 mL hexane (C6H14, d=0.66 g/mL). Assuming the volumes add on mixing calculate the mole fraction
For each of the following pairs, predict which substance would be more soluble in water.
a. NH3 or PH3
b. CH3CN or CH3CH3
c. CH3COOH or CH3COOCH
The solubility of nitrogen in water is 8.21x10-4 mol/l at 0oC when the N2 pressure above water is 0.790 atm. Calculate the Henry's law constant for N2.
