Experiment #10: Solubility Of Organic Compound Flashcards
It is the chemical behavior of a compound depends on the type of bonds present in the molecule
Solubility
*
TRUE OR FALSE:
Standard Chemical Tests for the different functional groups have been developed to be carried out easily and quickly
TRUE
What are the signs that a compound is positive?
- Change in Color
- Evolution of Gas
- Development of Odor
- Formation of Precipitate
- Changes in Color of Litmus Paper
It is the first step in identification of functional groups
Solubility Test
TRUE OR FALSE:
Organic compounds are grouped according to their solubility in water, ether, 5% NaOH, 5% NaHCO, 5% HCl, and Concentrated H2SO4
TRUE
TRUE OR FALSE:
Solubility can be expressed as g solute/200mL solvent at a specific temperature
FALSE; it can be expressed as g solute/100mL solvent
What are the factors that can affect the solubility?
- Nature of Solute and Solvent
- Temperature
- pH level
What is the solubility of acetic acid in water?
Soluble (Miscible)
What is the reason why acetic acid is soluble?
Hydrophilic end forms H-bond with water
What is the solubility of acetic acid in ether?
Insoluble
What is the solubility of benzoic acid in water?
Insoluble; because its carbon is greater than 5
What is the solubility of acetic acid in pet ether?
miscible
What is the solubility of sodium benzoate in water?
Soluble; because of ion-dipole interaction
Is cyclohexanol miscible in water?
NO; it is immiscible
What is the solubility of sodium benzoate in ether?
Insoluble; non-polar, no charges
