Which of the following will be most soluble in octane?

Group of answer choices

CH3CH3CH2CH3

CH3OH

CH3CH2OH

CH3CH2OCH3

a. CH₃CH₃CH₂CH₃

Octane is a hydrocarbon and an alkane with the chemical formula C₈H₁₈. It is a non-polar compound.

General Solubility rule: The Golden Rule of Solubility states that "like dissolves like", referring to the fact that compounds that are both polar or both nonpolar tend to mix, while a nonpolar compound typically would not interact with a polar one.

Now we know that alkanes are non- polar in nature, Alkanes are nonpolar molecules, since they contain only non-polar carbon-carbon and carbon-hydrogen bonds and also octane is non-polar thus we can say that like dissolves like and both are non-polar compound thus alkane will be most soluble in octane than other functional groups.

Explanation:

Octane is a non-polar compound. It is a hydrocarbon with 8-carbon length along its chain.

It belongs to a special group of hydrocarbons called alkanes.

What makes a substance soluble in another?

   It is a common phrase that  "like dissolves like". This is applicable to solubility of substances in another.

the answer is false because not all countries have geysers under their crust. for example, iceland uses geothermal energy because it is available every in their country.  

the answer is either b or c
