A) hydrogen bond B) rotational C) H₃PO₄ D) H₂PO₄^– E) HPO₄ ^2– F) disordered G) positive entropy H) negative entropy I) higher electronegativity J) insoluble K) tetrahedral arrangement L) acid M) base N) only partially ionized

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The insolubility of nonpolar molecules in water is due to the large negative entropy, which results from water molecules forming an ordered network around nonpolar molecules, decreasing the system's overall entropy.
