level questions: SOLUBILITY OF LIQUIDS IN LIQUIDS

QuestionAnswer
• Refers to the mutual solubilities of the components in liquid-liquid systems • is used in relation to liquids but also applicable to solids and gasesMiscibility
categories of liquid-liquid solubility system• Complete miscibility • Partial Miscibility • Three Component System
• Polar and semipolar are completely miscible because they mix in all proportionsComplete miscibility
Example of complete miscibilityWater + alcohol, glycerin + alcohol, alcohol + acetone Nonpolar: Benzene + carbon tetrachloride
• Mutual solubilities of partially miscible liquids are influenced by temperaturePartial miscibility
Example of partial miscibilityPhenol + Water
• This principle contain one, two or three partially miscible pairsThree-component System
Examples of Three Component Systems• Water + CCl4 + Acetic acid • Water + phenol + acetone • Water + alcohol + castor oil • Water + peppermint oil + PEG
