The solubility of anhydrous AlCl₃ and hydrous AlCl₃ in diethylether are S₁

The solubility of anhydrous AlCl₃ and hydrous AlCl₃ in diethylether are S₁ and S₂ repectively. Then

Options

(a) S₁ = S₂
(b) S₁ > S₂
(c) S₁ (d) None of these

Correct Answer:

S₁ > S₂

Explanation:

Hydrous AlCl₃ remains in ionic from aond is less soluble in orgtanic solvents while anhydrous AlCl₃ is covalent and highly soluble in organic solvants.
