Nonpolar substances that repel water molecules.
they wont mix together and they will repel each other.
It forms a layer on top of the water. Water does not dissolve oil since water is polar and oil is not. The oil is ontop of the water since it is less dense than the water.
All substances that are water repelling are considered hydrophobic substances. Ex: Oil, Waxes, etc..
Vegetable oil is denser then water, so it floats on top. Oil is also a lipid, which is hydrophobic, meaning it does not like water. They do not mix.
These substances are called immiscible; for example water and vegetable oil.
Grease
These are organic compounds.
Some hydrophobic substances are soluble in water (ex.: proteins).
It is non-polar because it is a carbonic compound.
Water does not dissolve everything. Some substances dont mix with water. Those are hydrophobic substances, ex: oil molecules
Water does not dissolve everything. Some substances dont mix with water. Those are hydrophobic substances, ex: oil molecules
Yes, it can. The polarity of both solvent and solute is low meaning both are hydrophobic compounds or substances
the hydrophilic easier than hydrophobic substances
Hydrophilic means that a substance has an affinity for/attraction to water. It binds with water easily. [It is the opposite of hydrophobic, where a substance has an aversion for water. It forms droplets in water (like oil).]
