Answer:
1-pentanol.
Explanation:
Hello,
In this case, we recognize hexane as highly used organic solvent for highly nonpolar organic substances due to its high nonpolarity which allow London's-like intermolecular forces to be formed between it and the solute. Therefore, since 1-pentanol is the most nonpolar alcohol among the given (longest carbon chain, higher nonpolarity), we can say it is the most soluble in hexane.
Regards.
The compound that has been most soluble in hexane has been 1-pentanol. Thus, Option A is correct.
Hexane has been the organic solvent used for dissolving nonpolar compounds.
The compounds that tends to dissolve more easily in the polar solvent have been the longer chain hydrocarbons with higher polarizability.
In the given set of compounds, the 1- pentanol has been the compound with the longest chain and high polarizability.
Thus, the compound that has been most soluble in hexane has been 1-pentanol. Thus, Option A is correct.
