Step 1
Chlorine (Cl2) is a nonpolar molecule, ammonia (NH3) is a polar molecule, and carbon disulfide (CS2) is a nonpolar molecule. The general rule is "like dissolves like", which means that polar substances tend to dissolve in polar solvents, and nonpolar substances Show more…

Analyze Use your knowledge of intermolecular forces to predict whether ammonia (NH $_{3} )$ or methane $\left(\mathrm{CH}_{4}\right)$ will be more soluble in water.
For each of the following pairs, predict which substance is more soluble in water. a. $\mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{NH}_{2}$ or $\mathrm{NH}_{3}$ b. $\mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{CN}$ or $\mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{OCH}_{3}$ c. $\mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{CH}_{2} \mathrm{OH}$ or $\mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{CH}_{2} \mathrm{CH}_{3}$ d. $\mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{OH}$ or $\mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{CH}_{2} \mathrm{OH}$ e. $\left(\mathrm{CH}_{3}\right)_{3} \mathrm{CCH}_{2} \mathrm{OH}$ or $\mathrm{CH}_{3}\left(\mathrm{CH}_{2}\right)_{6} \mathrm{OH}$ f. $\mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{OCH}_{3}$ or $\mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{CO}_{2} \mathrm{H}$
