Because sucrose is a polar molecule, it dissolves in water. This is understood by the chemical axiom "like dissolves like." octane is a completely saturated hydrocarbon and is therefore non-polar. Because octane is non-polar and sucrose is polar, sucrose does not dissolve in octane.

What compound most dissolve in hexane?
Hexane is a non-polar solvent, so it will not dissolve in water. Kerosene is non-polar so it will dissolve in Hexane.
Does sulfuric acid dissolve in hexane?
no but hexane dissolves in sulfuric acid
What solvents can dissolve polypropylene?
hexane
Which of the following liquids is hexane most likely to dissolve?
NaCl will not dissolve in Hexane because NaCl is a polar molecule and Hexane is a non-polar molecule. NaCl is insoluble in Hexane. On the other hand, NaCl will dissolve in water because both are polar molecules. "Like dissolves like".
Why is graphite insoluble in hexane?
No. Hexane is a nonpolar compound and will not dissolve ions.
Is sugar soluble in hexane?
No, sugar is not soluble in hexane. This is because sugar is considered hydrophilic, so it will only dissolve in something that contains water.
What compound most dissolve in hexane?
Hexane is a non-polar solvent, so it will not dissolve in water. Kerosene is non-polar so it will dissolve in Hexane.
Does sulfuric acid dissolve in hexane?
no but hexane dissolves in sulfuric acid

Does hexane dissolve in motor oil?
yes
Is baking soda soluble in hexane?
No. Hexane is a nonpolar liquid and so will not dissolve an ionic substance.
Is iron 3 nitrate miscible with hexane C6H14?
No. Hexane is a nonpolar substance so it would not dissolve ionic compounds.
Why is graphite insoluble in hexane?
No. Hexane is a nonpolar compound and will not dissolve ions.
Why hexane will dissolve benzene but will not dissolve sodium chloride?
Hexane is non polar compound and benzene also non polar compound so non polar comp's soluble in non polar reagents. But sodium chloride is ionic so does nt dissolve benzene in it
Are terpenoids soluble in hexane?
Terpenoids are large hydrocarbons. They are generally non polar and hydrophobic. Hexane is a non polar solvent. When solutes and solvents have compatible polarities ,the solute dissolves in the solvent. As terpenoids and hexane are non polar , terpenoids would dissolve in hexane.
Why does hexane not form a solution with water?
Water is a polar molecule (is a dipole, has a positive end and a negative end), hexane is a non-polar molecule. Like dissolves like. Water will dissolve other polar molecules, like HCl and NH3. Hexane will dissolve non-polar molecules like benzene or toluene.
