Which of the following would be expected to be good solvents for cyclopentane. choose all that apply. toluene, cgh5ch3 cyclohexane h20 none of the above

cyclohexane

Explanation:

Solubility is determined by the principle ,  "like dissolves like" .

i.e. , if a compound is polar then it will dissolve in a polar compound only , and

if a compound is non - polar then it will dissolve in a non - polar compound only .

Hence , from the question ,

a good solvent for cyclopentane would be cyclohexane ,

since , both the compounds are non polar in nature , hence get solubilized ,

the other options mentioned are polar .

passing a magnet thought the

mixture , because iron gets attracted to magnet .
