Explain the solubility rule ''like dissolves like'' in terms of inter - molecular forces that exist in solutions.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The solubility rule ..like dissolves like.. is based on the inter - molecular force of that exist in solution as follows : A substance (solute) dissolves in a solvent if the inter - molecular interactions are similar in both the components (i.e. solvent and solute particles or molecules). This commonly happens when polar solutes dissolve in polar solvents and non - polar solutes in non - polar solvents.
