Solubility in Chloroform
(from reneet 2024)
Official key actually says it's option 3. How do you differentiate between option 1 and 3 and what is the reason for 3 being correct?

to close the thread when your doubt is solved. Mention the users who helped you solve the doubt. This will be added to their stats.make out the dipole and try
i mean, between CN and OH which is more polar? does the triple bond outweigh the greater EN of oxygen?
also does H bonding play a factor here?
OH is more polar. It's acidic in nature, innit?
we can't always equate polarity with acidity tho right? Thats because the hydrogen is directly attached to the oxygen while CH3CN doesnt have that? shouldnt we just look at the bond w carbon?
honestly idk, what exactly do we look for in terms of polarity when finding solubility?
We good?
