question 46

Multiple Choice

Which of the following statements regarding the solubility of molecular compounds in water is NOT correct?

• A)Energy is required to overcome solute-solute interactions.
• B)Making room for the solute between solvent molecules is endothermic.
• C)Heats of solution near zero mean that the intermolecular forces between the solute and solvent are not sufficient to overcome the solute-solute and solvent-solvent attractive forces.
• D)Negative heats of solution mean that solute-solvent intermolecular attractions are stronger than those in the pure solute and pure solvent.
• E)Similar types and strengths of intermolecular forces often lead to higher solubility than dissimilar ones.
