not characterized by a dipole. its a covalent bond. it doe snot ionize when dissolved in water.

Why do some liquids sink in liquids?

The more-dense liquid will sink because it's more dense and this is the lowest-energy state. If both are polar or both are nonpolar, some mixing will occur, but the effect can still be seen.

The liquids do not mix. They are said to be immiscible.


What kind of bond creates volatile liquids?

The nonpolar type of bonding results in more volatile compounds. Ionic and polar type of bondings are favoured in crystallic solids.(These would by hydrogen compounds with some carbon bonds. They can be vaporized before burning to produce some water.)The nonpolar type of bonding results in more volatile compounds. Ionic and polar type of bondings are favoured in crystallic solids.


How does soap remove oil?

Water will dissolve anything that is polar but oil is nonpolar. It usually takes nonpolar liquids to dissolve a nonpolar substance. Soap molecules help with this because they have a polar head that interacts with water nicely and a nonpolar tail that interacts with things like oil. The end result is a drop of oil with a layer of soap floating around in the water.


Are polar and non polar liquids soluble?

Generally not. The general rule to go by is like dissolves like. Polar substance will dissolve other polar substances while nonpolar substances will dissolve other nonpolar substances.
