What do you mean by the phrase''like dissolves like''?
Without a specified context, I assume it means polar substances dissolve in polar solvents and non-polar substances dissolve in non-polar solvents.
What can NH3 dissolve in?
In polar solvents it dissolves.As an example water.
Can gases cannot dissolve in water?
To find out the answer to this question, first you must understand about polarity. A polar molecule is one which has both: -polar bonds (ie. the intramolecular covalent molecular bond between both atoms are of different electronegativities, hence one gains a partially positive charge, delta +, and the more electronegative atom gains a partially negative charge, delta -). -the delta + and delta - centres to not coincide (and therefore do not cancel each other out) (need to know molecular structure to do this) Both of these mean that the molecule has an overall dipole (+ive and -ive side) Polar molecules are soluble (can dissolve) in other polar solvents. Non-polar molecules are soluble in other non-polar solvents. A polar substance is NOT soluble in a non-polar substance and vice versa. WATER IS A POLAR SUBSTANCE. Therefore, gases which are ALSO POLAR can dissolve in water.
Polar solvents dissolve the solute?
Polar solvents will dissolve ionic or polar solutes. This is due to the solubility rule that states that like dissolves like. So a polar solvent will not dissolve non-polar solutes.
Do substances made of nonpolar molecules only dissolve in nonpolar or polar solvents?
Like dissolves like. Polar compounds dissolve in polar solvents and nonpolar compounds dissolve in nonpolar solvents. An exception to this rule, however, is that an electronegative atom can only take four or five carbons into a polar solvent. An alcohol with an alkyl chain seven carbons long, for example, will not be soluble in a polar solvent, even though it is a polar molecule.
Do polar solvents dissolve polar solvents?
Yes. Like dissolves like!
What can dissolve?
Generally polar solvents dissolve polar solutes and vice versa.
What types of substances will dissolve in polar solvents?
what type of solute can dissolve on a polar solvent such as water?
Explain how a solute can dissolve in polar and nonpolar solvents?
=a polar solvent dissolves a polar solute, and nonpolar solvents dissolve nonpolar solutes. likes dissolve likes=
What do you mean by the phrase''like dissolves like''?
Without a specified context, I assume it means polar substances dissolve in polar solvents and non-polar substances dissolve in non-polar solvents.
Explain the statement like dissolves like?
Like dissolves like meaning that a polar substance will dissolve a polar substance and nonpolar substance will dissolve other polar substances. By contrast nonpolar and polar substances will not dissolve one another.
If a solute does not dissolve in a solvent?
Polar solutes are soluble in polar solvents. Non-polar solutes are soluble in non-polar solvents. Polar solutes are miscible in non-polar solvents and vice verse.
Why are metallic substances unable to dissolve in either polar or non polar solvents?
There are plenty of metals that will dissolve given the correct solvent or solvents combined. Google "royal water"
Can ethers dissolve both polar and non-polar compounds?
No it's false nonpolar compounds usually do not dissolve in polar solvents.
What can NH3 dissolve in?
In polar solvents it dissolves.As an example water.
What solvent does not dissolve ionic compounds?
Organic solvents, which are non-polar cannot dissolve polar compounds, such as ionic compounds.
