Asked by Samantha

An etheral solution contains benzoic acid, 9-fluorenone, abd ethyl 4-aminobenzoate. Why would benzoic acid and 9-fluorenone not be extracted from this etheral solution by aqueous HCl ?

Answered by DrBob222
Fluorenone is neutral and benzoic acid is acidic; neither is soluble in an acid solution as compared to ether.
