What is the descriptive term for a solute that requires less than 1 part of solvent for 1 part of solute ?

  • A.Very soluble
  • B.Freely soluble
  • C.Soluble
  • D.Slightly soluble

Answer: A

A solute needing less than 1 part of solvent for 1 part of solute is very soluble.

The pharmacopoeial descriptive terms, in parts of solvent needed for 1 part of solute:

TermParts of solvent
Very solubleless than 1
Freely soluble1 to 10
Soluble10 to 30
Sparingly soluble30 to 100
Slightly soluble100 to 1,000

So freely soluble, soluble and slightly soluble all need at least 1 part of solvent, and progressively more.
