Compounds can be soluble in solvent mixtures while insoluble in the individual pure solvents
Is it true that compounds can be soluble in solvent mixtures while insoluble in the individual pure solvents?
Yes. Compounds frequently exhibit a strong cosolvency effect, displaying significantly higher solubility in specific solvent mixtures than in any of the individual pure components alone.
Verdict: SUPPORTED · 7 sources for, 0 against · Last checked
The retrieved literature extensively covers cosolvency, demonstrating that many compounds have a solubility peak in binary or ternary solvent mixtures that far exceeds their solubility in the respective pure individual solvents.
