Best Answer

No. CHCl3 (Chloroform) is insoluble in water. Chloroform when mixed with water, will form two liquid layers and Chloroform will form the bottom layer. This nature of chloroform is explored in several biological and chemical techniques such as DNA isolation, separation of phyotochemicals etc

No, CCl4 cannot dissolve in water. It is nonpolar and can only be dissolved by other nonpolar objects. Water is polar, so it cannot dissolve it.

CH3COOH stands for acetic acid which is a polar molecule. Like dissolves like, so water (being polar) is soluble in acetic acid. CCl4, is non-polar, so it is not soluble in water.

Is Br2 more soluble in H2O or CCl4?

ccl4 will dissolve better in water because likes dissolves likes, H2O is non-polar an CCL4 is also non polar where as ch2cl2 is polar(different to water) there for it wont dissolve in water but CCL4 will^^This is not true: water is polar. Therefore, since CCl4 is non-polar, and CH2Cl2 is polar, and like dissolves like, CH2Cl2 is more soluble.

Why iodine dissolve readily in CCl4?

Iodine is a non polar compound so it is readily soluble in non polar liquids like CCl4.


Why does H2O have a higher melting point than CCl4?

It has to do with intermolecular forces. H2O has an oxygen with two hydrogens coming off of it. This forms two hydrogen bonds, which are much stronger than the London Dispersion Forces in CCl4. (Since CCl4 is non-polar, there are no Dipole-Dipole forces).
