Question

Cyclohexane (C6H12) is often used as anonpolar solvent. Of the following solutes, which would dissolve incyclohexane? (Select all that apply.) 1 salt(NaCl)
benzene(C6H6)
methanol (CH3OH)
dextrose(C6H12O6)
stearic acid(CH3(CH2)16COOOH)


Of the following solutes,which would dissolve in water? (Select all that apply.) 2 salt(NaCl)
benzene(C6H6)
methanol (CH3OH)
dextrose(C6H12O6)
stearic acid(CH3(CH2)16COOOH)





1 salt(NaCl)

dextrose(C6H12O6)
stearic acid(CH3(CH2)16COOOH)
2 salt(NaCl)
benzene(C6H6)

methanol (CH3OH)
dextrose(C6H12O6)
stearic acid(CH3(CH2)16COOOH)

Explanation / Answer

I think stearic acid will be soluble in both solvents, because itcontains a long carbon chain (non polar), but contains COOH (polar)group. Cyclohexane Benzene, stearic acid Water NaCl, methanol, dextrose, stearic acid Hope this helps!
