Q. 9. 77 - An Introduction to General, Organic, and Biological Chemistry

Question

Match the diagrams with the following: (9.1)

a. a polar solute and a polar solvent

b. a nonpolar solute and a polar solvent

c. a nonpolar solute and a nonpolar solvent

                                 

Step-by-Step Solution

Answer

(part a) A polar solute and a polar solvent are represented in diagram$1.$

(part b) A nonpolar solute and a polar solvent are illustrated in diagram$2.$

(part c) A non-polar solute and a non-polar solvent are described in diagram $1.$

Step 1: Introduction (part a)

Solvents are molecules that disperse the soluble compounds in a mixture. These solutes can take the form of solids, liquids, or gases. Solvents are thus utilized to make a solution that once solute interacts with a liquid solution.

Step 2: Given Data (Part a).

Find the polar is solvent or solute.

Step 3: Explanation (Part a).

A polar solute and a polar solvent are depicted in diagram $1$.

Step 4: Given data (Part b).

Find the nonpolar solute and the polar solvent.

Step 5: Explanation (Part b).

A nonpolar solute and a polar solvent are shown in diagram $2$.

Step 6: Given data (Part c).

Find the non polar solute and the non polar solvent.

Step 7: Explanation (Part c).

A non-polar solute and a non-polar solvent are indicated in diagram $1$.
