Why is hexane soluble in water and gasoline is not?
Hexane and gasoline both are insoluble in water.
Is sugar soluble in hexane?
No, sugar is not soluble in hexane. This is because sugar is considered hydrophilic, so it will only dissolve in something that contains water.
Why are most simple carbohydrates soluble in water and insoluble in liquids such as hexane?
Because water is polar and hexane is non polar which makes it insoluble
What dissolves glucose water acetone hexane methyl ether methyl alcohol toluene?
Glucose is easily soluble in water but has a low solubility in methanol.
Is octanol soluble with hexane?
Octane is a non polar compound. Sodium hydroxide is an ionic solvent. So octane is not soluble in NaOH and they together involve in no reactions.
Is phosphatidyl choline more soluble in hexane or water?

Why is hexane insoluble in water and methylene chloride is soluble in water?
Hexane is not a polar molecule, and thus is not soluble in water. Methylene chloride is not soluble in water for the same reason.
Why is hexane soluble in water and gasoline is not?
Hexane and gasoline both are insoluble in water.
Is bromine more soluble in hexane or in water?

Is benzophenone soluble in hexane?
Benzophenone is partially soluble in hexane. Benzophenone is polar, where as, hexane is nonpolar. "Like dissolves like."
How do you explain sodium chloride is soluble in water but not in hexane?
Sodium chloride is soluble in water because both have polar molecules; but not in hexane becuse it is nonpolar.
Is iron III nitrate soluble in hexane?

Why is potassium manganate 7 more soluble in hexane than water?
it is more soluble as hexane is non polar and potassium manganate is also non polar substances with like polarities mix so potassium manganate is more soluble in hexane
Why are most simple carbohydrates soluble in water and insoluble in liquids such as hexane?
Because water is polar and hexane is non polar which makes it insoluble
