Ethyl acetate is commonly used as a nail polish remover. For the process of mixing ethyl acetate (CH3COOC2H5) and water, here are the signs for ΔH, ΔS and ΔG ΔH ΔS ΔG – + – Which of the following statements are correct for this process? The solute-solute and solvent-solvent interactions (before mixing): 1. Are weaker than the solute-solvent interactions that form after mixing 2. Are stronger than the solute-solvent interactions that form after mixing The solution formed after mixing 3. Has higher entropy than pure solute and pure solvent because more arrangements are possible. 4. Has lower entropy than pure solute and pure solvent because less arrangements are possible. Therefore: 5. Ethyl acetate is NOT miscible in water. 6. Ethyl acetate is miscible in water.
