Is the vapor pressure of chloroform less than that of water?

No, the vapor pressure of chloroform is higher than that of Water. The normal boiling point of chloroform is at 61 °C and approx. 39 °C lower than that of water. For calculating vapor pressures of chloroform and water at different pressures you could visit the links below.


What liquid has a density less than water?

Volatile liquids such as alcohol and ethanol have less density than water. They also evaporate faster than water does.


Would chloroform float on water?

The density of chloroform, CHCl3, is 1.483 g/cm3 so it would sink and water would float. Water has a density of 1 g/cm3. The solubility of chloroform is less than 1.0 g/ 100 mL


Is chloroform soluble in water?

No they are not. Water will float on chloroform as the latter is more denser than the former.


Why chloroform is immiscible with water?

Chloroform (CHCl3), although it is polar, cannot form hydrogen bonds with water and thus the interactions between chloroform and water are too weak to be miscible. In addition, chloroform is significantly heavier than water and will form a bottom layer if mixed.


Alcohol is more volatile than water because?

due to larger size of alkyl group alcohols are less polar than water and hydrogen bonding is not so strong as in water....


Why use chloroform in DNA isolation?

DNA is soluble in chloroform more than water. So we use it.


How does water affects chloroform?

They are not mixing. density of water is lower than CHCl3.


How does petrol evaporate faster than water?

It is more volatile than water.


Is alcohol better than chloroform?

information is less to answer. Both of them are polar compounds.


Why does Gasolinel evaporate faster than water because it is more what than water?

Volatile?


The normal boiling point of chloroform which has a higher vapor pressure than water at 100 and degC is?

The boiling point of chloroform is 61,15 oC.
