Why many alcohols are soluble in water. What part of an alcohol will limit its solubility in water What part of an alcohol may make it soluble in water?

Many alcohols are soluble in water because of the -OH group that they all contain. This is the polar part of the molecule which makes it polar and thus soluble in water. The part of the molecule that limits the solubility in water is the carbon chain attached to this -OH group. The longer and more branched the carbon chain, the less soluble it is in water.

Is lithium sulfide soluble in water?
yes it is soluble "soluble" is not a scientific term. But most agree that a solubility of .001 molar is not really soluble. If you look for the actual solubility, you will find by that definition, LiF is not soluble in water. (or at the least, slightly soluble in water.) Anyone who says LiF is soluble n water has never done an experiment in the lab to see that lithium fluoride precipitates very nicely out of water when formed.
What is an undissolved solute?
Each solute has a limit of solubility in a liquid, at a given temperature and pressure. The undissolved solute is a solid residue.
When is a liquid solution saturated?
When a compound become insoluble in a liquid at a given temperature and pressure a saturated solution is obtained; the limit of solubility is reached.
What is the most toxic fat soluble vitamin?
Vitamin A has the highest toxicity potential of the Fat soluble vitamins as too much can cause weakened bones and increased fractures. The male and female daily required intakes is 900 and 700 mcg respectively, whereas the upper tolerable limit is around 3,000 mcg.

Is sodium more soluble than methanol in water?
No. Sodium compounds do have a limit to their solubility in water. Methanol is water soluble in all proportions.

What is the meaning of solubility limit?
The solubility limit is the amount of mols of a solute that a solvent can hold. In other words, it's the point at which a certain solvent becomes saturated. Hope that helps. =D
How is the legal alcohol limit calculated?
Your Blood Alcohol Level (BAC); the percentage of alcohol in your bloodstream. The legal limit is 0.08%.
What is the legal alcohol limit when driving in Texas?
The legal alcohol limit when driving in Texas depends on a couple things. The legal alcohol limit is 0.08 BAC, if you are under 21 then the limit is set at 0.02 BAC and if you are a commercial driver then the limit is 0.04 BAC.
Why doesn't salt dissolve?
SOME salt will always disolve in water. The solubility of sodium chloride in water at 20 0C is approximately 360 g/L. Over this limit dissolution is not possible and the solution is called saturated.
Is silver nitrate soluble or insoluble?
Silver nitrate is the most soluble in water of all common silver salts and is generally considered soluble, although it does have a saturation limit.
What is meaning of the solubility?
The solubility limit is the amount of mols of a solute that a solvent can hold. In other words, it's the point at which a certain solvent becomes saturated. Hope that helps. =D
Is sodium chloride soluble or insoluble?
yes it is soluble in water for certain limit..!! when the soluble capacity of the water exceeds beyond the standard value.. sodium chloride becomes insoluble..!!

What is the age limit for clubs in Atlanta?
The age limit for most clubs is 21 years of age if the club has alcohol. The age limit for a club that doesn't have alcohol is 18 years of age.
