temperature affects the solubility of a substance..benzoic is poor in cold water because it is only slightly soluble in water..in order for it to reach the point of saturation, heat must be applied..heat acts as a catalyst..

∙ 9y agoThe large hydrocarbon body is responsible for the solubility of benzoic acid in hot water and not in cold water. This is why benzoic acid can be purified by removing impurities with its solubility property in hot water and crystallization with cold water.

What is the solubility of hypophosphorus acid in cold water?
The hypophosphorus acid is miscible with water.
Does the solubility of solute increase in hot or cold water?
The solubility of gas increases in cold water. The solubility of solid increases in hot water.
Is ascorbic acid soluble?
Soluble in hot water. Partially soluble in cold water. Solubility in Water: 1g/3ml water. Solubility in water: 80% @ 100 deg. C and 45% @ 45 deg. C.
Which chemical is addied which prevent spoilage of cold drink?
Benzoic acid is added to prevent spoilage of cold drinks
How is water turned to ice and is there acid in it?
Nope, no acid when water freezes, the water freezes by the very cold air turning cold water and cold air makes ice. It's like a recipe!
According to the published solubility what is the minimum amount of water in which 1 gram of benzoic acid can be dissolved?
The solubility of benzoic acid in hot water is 68g/L and 1.7g/L in ice cold water.
What is the solubility of hypophosphorus acid in cold water?
The hypophosphorus acid is miscible with water.
Which of These compound does not form a clear solution with the cold water.. a.benzoic acid b.sugar c.backing power d.caustic soda?
baking soda
What is the solubility of salicylic acid in hot and cold water?
Salicylic acid does not dissolves very easily in hot and cold water. This acid is widely used in acne medicine. It is derived from the bark of the willow tree.
What results from a mixture of benzoic acid to and HCL?
You will get benzoic acid as a result. The benzoic salt will gain a Hydrogen from the HCl; thus, becoming benzoic acid, and the Cl shall remain by itself in suspension if you're mixing the two together in an aqueous solution.

How do you separate benzoic acid from a mixture of benzoic acid and toluene using extraction?
Make a solution of Sodium Hydroxide or Sodium Carbonate and do three to four solvent solvent extractions using the aqueous base and the mixture o benzoic acid and toluene. Because benzoic acid reacts with base to form the water soluble carboxylate ion, it will react and the dissolve in the aqueous solution. Upon separation of the two phases acidify the aqueous extract with dilute HCl, a white needle-like precipitate of benzoic acid will form when the solution becomes acidic. Simply filter the crystals, wash with cold water, and then recrystallize using a mixture of 50/50 water and methanol or some other suitable solvent.
What is the solubility of toluene in cold water and hot water?
The solubility of toluene in cold water is at 0.033%. The solubility of toluene is slightly higher at 0.050%, toluene has an extremely high boiling point at 110C.
Why wait till crude benzoic acid is cold to add charcoal?
Safety. It will bubble vigorously if charcoal is added when hot.
How does cold water affect the solubility of the Milk of Magnesia?
The solubility of magnesium hydroxide in water is very low; and in cool water is even smaller.
