Based on solute `-` solvent interactions, arrange the following in order of increasing solubility in `n-`octane and explain the result. Cyclohexane, `KCl,CH_(3)OH,CH_(3)CN`.

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine the increasing order of solubility of the given solutes (Cyclohexane, KCl, CH₃OH, and CH₃CN) in n-octane, we need to consider the polarity of both the solute and the solvent. Since n-octane is a non-polar solvent, we will apply the principle of "like dissolves like," which states that non-polar solutes are more soluble in non-polar solvents compared to polar solutes. ### Step-by-step Solution: 1. **Identify the Polarity of the Solvent:** - n-Octane is a non-polar solvent. 2. **Analyze the Polarity of Each Solute:** ...
