Which of the following statements regarding solubility is incorrect?
A)A polar compound dissolves an ionic compound due to ion-dipole interactions.
B)A nonpolar solvent will not interact strongly enough with ions to dissolve an ionic compound.
C)Nonpolar liquids will dissolve in one another because the intermolecular forces in the pure liquids are weak, and there is an increase in entropy.
D)Most ionic solids are more soluble in water at higher temperatures than at lower temperatures.
E)Most gases are more soluble in water at higher temperatures than at lower temperatures.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Most gases are less soluble in water at higher temperatures than at lower temperatures. This is because increasing temperature usually decreases the solubility of gases in liquids due to the exothermic nature of gas dissolution, which leads to a decrease in solubility as temperature increases.
