Classify the substances according to the strongest solutesolvent interaction that will occur between the given substances and water during dissolution class=

Respuesta :

FeBr₃: Ion-Dipole Forces

Iron (III) bromide is a soluble salt in water. When dissolved it will from its ions (Fe+3 and Br-). So the strongest solute-solvent interaction between it and water is Ion-Dipole forces.

AlCl₃: ?

HF: Hydrogen Bonding

HF can interact with water producing Hydrogen Bonding.

Ethanol: Hydrogen Bonding

Presents dipole-dipole forces, hydrogen bonding and London Dispersion Forces. Dipole-dipole because of the oxygen and hydrogen bonding because of the OH.
