Question

6. (6 pts.) The following is a schematic representation of the molecules for forming a solution of the solid benzophenone in the liquid diethyl ether. You probably noticed that benzophenone was quiet soluble in diethyl ether, here we will explain this on the basis of the IMFs involved. solution benzophenone (solid) diethyl ether (liquid) O. a) (1 pt.) For the solid benzophenone, list all of the IMFs that have to be broken in order for it to dissolve in diethyl ether b) (1 pt.) For the solid biphenyl, is the energy cost to break the IMFs in order for it to dissolve in diethyl ether more likely to be large or smal? c) (1 pt.) For the liquid diethyl ether, list all of the IMFs that have to be broken in order for it to dissolve biphenyl d) (1 pt.) For the liquid diethyl ether, is the energy cost to break the IMFs in order for it to dissolve biphenyl more likely to be large or small? e) (1 pt.) For the solution, list all of the IMFs that form if biphenyl dissolves in diethyl ether f) (1 pt.) For the solution, is the energy gain associated with making the IMFs in the solution more likely to be large or small? g) (1 pt) lgnoring the IMFs for now, does entropy favor or disfavor dissolving biphenyl in diethyl ether?
