Why are carbohydrates polar?
Carbohydrates are polar because of their composition. They are composed of organic compounds that are simple like ketones and aldehydes that have polar hydroxyl groups attached.
Are polar solutes soluble in nonpolar solvents?
No, polar solutes are generally not soluble in nonpolar solvents.
Is non polar soluble?
Nonpolar substances are generally soluble in other nonpolar solvents. Conversely, nonpolar substances are typically not soluble in polar solvents due to the difference in their polarity.
Is bacteria and virus polar or non polar?
Bacteria are generally considered polar because they have distinct ends or poles, such as a head and a tail. Viruses, on the other hand, are typically nonpolar as they do not have a specific structure like bacteria and generally have a symmetrical shape.
Is C3H6Br2 polar or non polar?
Nonpolar
Explain why nonpolar substances generally do not dissolve in polar solvents?
Nonpolar substances are not attracted to the polar molecules in the solvent due to differences in their electrical charges. This results in weak intermolecular forces between the nonpolar substance and the polar solvent, making dissolution less likely. Thus, nonpolar substances tend to remain clustered together rather than dispersing in the polar solvent.
Can a non polar solute dissolve nonpolar solvent?
Yes, like dissolves like so a nonpolar solvent dissolves nonpolar solutes and polar solvents dissolve polar solutes
Is SiF6 2- polar or nonpolar?
nonpolar
How does the principle of like dissolves like explain the differing solubilities of solutes in various solvents?
Generally polar solutes are dissolved in polar solvents and nonpolar solutes are dissolved in nonpolar solvents.
How does the principle like dissolves like explain the differing solubilities of solutes in various solvents?
Generally polar solutes are dissolved in polar solvents and nonpolar solutes are dissolved in nonpolar solvents.
Is cyclohexane a polar solvent or a non polar solvent?
It is nonpolar
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.
