Question 22

Multiple Choice

Which of the following statements regarding the solubility of molecular compounds in water is NOT correct?


A) Energy is required to overcome solute-solute interactions.
B) Making room for the solute between solvent molecules is endothermic.
C) Heats of solution near zero mean that the intermolecular forces between the solute and solvent are not sufficient to overcome the solute-solute and solvent-solvent attractive forces.
D) Negative heats of solution mean that solute-solvent intermolecular attractions are stronger than those in the pure solute and pure solvent.
E) Similar types and strengths of intermolecular forces often lead to higher solubility than dissimilar ones.
