Hatem Ksibi

what means ideal solvent ? with or without interaction with the solute for example ?

Ali Al-Matar

Thank you Hatem for answering.

WHat I meant to clarify is that can we design a solvent that has the maximum solubility for a specific solute?

Here we can use an appropriate cosolvant. for CO2 for example ethanol and/or methanol seems a good cosolvent for several organic compounds.

What I mean is to find that ideal solvent theoretically.
