Hi everyone here we have a question asking if fruit toast is more soluble in water or in benzene, and what are the inter molecular forces between the more soluble solvent and fructose? Fruit toast has many hydroxyl groups, which makes this more soluble in water, and this is due to inter molecular forces dispersion, die paul, di Pole and hydrogen bonding. So these are our answers. Thank you for watching. Bye.
