It is less volatile than chloroform, therefore it was more difficult to apply and needed warm water to evaporate. [55] Its smell has been described as "fruity", [55] quince-like [57] and "more pleasant than chloroform", [51] and had a "pleasant taste". [55] Carbon tetrachloride for anaesthetic use was made by the chlorination of carbon disulfide.
The following chart shows the solubility of various ionic compounds in water at 1 atm pressure and room temperature (approx. 25 °C, 298.15 K). "Soluble" means the ionic compound doesn't precipitate, while "slightly soluble" and "insoluble" mean that a solid will precipitate; "slightly soluble" compounds like calcium sulfate may require heat to precipitate.
Carbon tetraiodide is slightly reactive towards water, giving iodoform and I 2. It is soluble in nonpolar organic solvents. It decomposes thermally and photochemically to tetraiodoethylene, C 2 I 4. Its synthesis entails AlCl 3-catalyzed halide exchange, which is conducted at room temperature: [4] CCl 4 + 4 EtI → CI 4 + 4 EtCl
Strongly polar compounds like sugars (e.g. sucrose) or ionic compounds, like inorganic salts (e.g. table salt) dissolve only in very polar solvents like water, while strongly non-polar compounds like oils or waxes dissolve only in very non-polar organic solvents like hexane.
Organochlorine chemistry is concerned with the properties of organochlorine compounds, or organochlorides, organic compounds that contain one or more carbon–chlorine bonds. [1] The chloroalkane class ( alkanes with one or more hydrogens substituted by chlorine) includes common examples.
One common form of polar interaction is the hydrogen bond, which is also known as the H-bond. For example, water forms H-bonds and has a molar mass M = 18 and a boiling point of +100 °C, compared to nonpolar methane with M = 16 and a boiling point of –161 °C.
1,1-Dichloroethylene, commonly called vinylidene chloride or 1,1-DCE, is an organochloride with the molecular formula CCl 2 CH 2.It is a colorless liquid with a sharp odor. Like most chlorocarbons, it is poorly soluble in water but soluble in organic solvents. 1,1-DCE was the precursor to the original clingwrap, Saran, for food, but this application has been phased
The caesium chloride structure adopts a primitive cubic lattice with a two-atom basis, where both atoms have eightfold coordination. The chloride atoms lie upon the lattice points at the corners of the cube, while the caesium atoms lie in the holes in the center of the cubes; an alternative and exactly equivalent 'setting' has the caesium ions at the corners and the chloride ion in the center.
