In trying to identify the compounds, you determine the following Electrical Boiling Melting Water Hexane point soluble soluble Compoundconductivity Unknown 1 Unknown2 Unknown 3 Unknown 4 point 413 C 801°CSoluble Not soluble 858°C Soluble Not soluble -47.6°C -185.2°C Not soluble Soluble Strongly ERR Soluble No 76.72°C-22.92°C perimental results given in the table, classify the unknown compounds based on whether they are likely to be ionic or propriate items to their respective bins

Explanation / Answer

Ionic compunds are polar in nature hence soluble in polar solvent whereas non-polar compounds soluble in non-polar solvents like hexane. Molecular compounds often soluble in both polar as well as non-polar solvents. Unknown compound 4 soluble in hexane therefore it will be molecular compound.
