Question

Indicate which is more soluble in ethanol? C2H5OH, acetic acid, CH3COOH, or stearic acid C17H35COOH.
Ethyl alcohol and acetic acid or fully miscible in water. Stearic acid is not soluble in water. I would not be able to predict if either ethyl alcohol or acetic acid is the more soluble since both are fully miscible with water.
