Which ONE of the following compounds is least soluble in water?

A) CH3CH2CH2NH2
B) CH3CH2CH2F
C) CH3CH(OH)CH3
D) CH3CH2COOH E) CH3CH2NHCH3

Answered by admin @



Answer:

B) CH3CH2CH2F

Explanation:

All the other compounds listed among the options are capable of forming hydrogen bonds with water except CH3CH2CH2F.

Recall that hydrogen bonds are formed when hydrogen is directly bonded to a highly electronegative atom such as nitrogen, oxygen, fluorine, sulphur, et cetra.

Such bonds are not present in CH3CH2CH2F, rather fluorine is bonded to carbon to give a halogenoalkane. This compound will display the least solubility in water.
