Question

The solubility of carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) in water at 25 °C is 
1.2 g>L. The solubility of chloroform (CHCl3) at the same temperature 
is 10.1 g>L. Why is chloroform almost ten times more 
soluble in water than carbon tetrachloride?

Accepted Answer

Hi everyone here we have a question telling us that at 30 degrees Celsius, the soluble bility of Roma form and carbon tetra bromide and water is 3.2 g per liter and 0.24 g per liter. Respectfully explain the greater soluble itty of Roma form and water than carbon tetra bromide. So Roma form is polar and therefore has stronger. Yeah, solute solvent interactions, Carbon texture, bromide is non polar, so it will have less solid solvent interactions. And that is our answer. Thank you for watching. Bye.
