What one of these defines the like dissolves like rule of solubility?
As a general rule polar compounds are soluble in polar solvents and nonpolar compounds are soluble in nonpolar solvents.
Are covalent compounds soluble in hexane?
It depends on the compound. nonpolar covalent compounds will generally be soluble whie polar covalent compounds will not be.
What cations always form soluble compounds?
Cations don't always form soluble compounds. In general, ionic compounds are soluble in very polar solvents such as water and insoluble in nonpolar solvents because the charged ions can be solvated only by polar solvents. Some ionic compounds are insoluble even in water, however.
Is RbOH soluble in non polar solvent?
It is not soluble in nonpolar solvents.
Why are halogens more soluble in non - polar solvents like cyclohexane?
Halogens on their own are simple elements and are thus nonpolar. Nonpolar substances dissolve most easily in nonpolar solvents.

Why is NaCl soluble in water but iodine not?
Sodium chloride and water are polar compounds. Iodine is soluble in nonpolar organic solvents.

Is RbOH soluble in non polar solvent?
It is not soluble in nonpolar solvents.
Is cyclohexene soluble in water?
No, cyclohexene is not soluble in water. Cyclohexene is a nonpolar compound, while water is a polar solvent. Generally, nonpolar compounds are not soluble in polar solvents like water. Therefore, cyclohexene tends to be immiscible or insoluble in water.
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.
Why are halogens more soluble in non - polar solvents like cyclohexane?
Halogens on their own are simple elements and are thus nonpolar. Nonpolar substances dissolve most easily in nonpolar solvents.
Covalent compounds are mostly soluble in non polar solvents but diamond and silicon carbide are not why?
I suppose that the cause is that C (diamond) and SiC form huge networks with covalent bonds.
Why are lipids soluble in organic solvents like chloroform?
Fats, as well as organic compounds, are nonpolar substances. Water, however, is a polar substance. Nonpolar substances dissolve nonpolar substances and polar substances dissolve polar substances (like dissolves like) because each are more attracted to molecules of similar structure than of different structure.
Why are hydrocarbons soluble in cyclohexane?
Both are nonpolar compounds.
What can you tell about methane (CH4) from its molecular formula?
It is a saturated hydrocarbon. It is a covalent compound and has all properties which are identical to simple covalent compounds. Low boiling and melting points, soluble in organic solvents (most simple covalent compounds are soluble in organic solvent), insoluble in water and does not conduct electricity as in does not have free ions.Its tetrahedral geometry makes it non-polar.It contains four hydrogen atoms
