Is CH3-CH2-CHO soluble in water

Answer 1

I would replace that word 'most' with 'totally' ... ethanol and water mix in all proportions.

Answer 2

CH3CH2OCH2CH3 is nonpolar and therefore will not dissolve in water. The general formula for solubility is like dissolves like. Water is polar, and this is nonpolar, hence a lack of solubility.

Answer 3

Yes. It is soluble because it contains polar bonds (C-O).

Answer 4

Clearly, or we would have 1 mol ethanoic acid. The O- group and the H+ makes it a slightly polar molecule that will go into solution.

Answer 5

no because it is nonpolar and water is polar. like dissolves like

Answer 6

No. Butane, like other hydrocarbons, is insoluble in water.

Answer 7

it should be, because of the -OH radical

Answer 8

CH3OH is soluble in water
