What else can I help you with?
Does NaCl dissolve in petroleum ether?
It is not soluble.
Does salt dissolve in petroleum ether?
No, salt does not dissolve in petroleum ether because salt is a polar compound and petroleum ether is a nonpolar solvent. As a result, there is no attraction between salt and petroleum ether molecules, making it insoluble.
Will sodium chloride dissolve in diethyl ether?
No. Sodium chloride is polar, whereas diethyl ether is non-polar. Unlike solutes do not dissolve in unlike solvent. Only "like dissolves like".
Can thinner dissolve super glue?
No
Can you lace marijuana with ether?
no, ether is a strong solvent that will dissolve the cannabinoids and then evaporate, as it has a low flash point
Does petroleum ether dissolve in vegetable oil?
Yes, petroleum ether is a nonpolar solvent and can dissolve hydrophobic substances like vegetable oil, which is also nonpolar. However, it is important to handle petroleum ether carefully due to its flammability and toxicity.
Would petroleum ether dissolve in vegetable oil?
Petroleum ether is a nonpolar solvent, while vegetable oil is a nonpolar substance. Since like dissolves like, petroleum ether should be able to dissolve in vegetable oil to some extent.
Does NaCl readily dissolve in diethyl ether?
I believe so, I did an experiment where I dissolved a lot of NaCl in diethyl ether, so it appears to be soluable. Not sure why tho
Is chloroform soluble in ether?
Yes, chloroform is soluble in ether. Both chloroform and ether are organic solvents that can dissolve each other due to their similar chemical properties.
How do you account for the observed solubility of naphthalene and sodium chloride in water and ether based on the nature of the bonds that exist in them?
The reason why naphthalene can be dissolve in ether and not in water is because of their polarity. Naphthalene is a non-polar molecule. so it can only dissolve with a non-polar molecule.
why is it that sodium chloride is insoluble in ether?
Ether has a lower dielectric constant than water. Therefore, the energy required to separate the cations from the anions in ether is greater than in water. The entropy gain that could result from converting solid salt to a solution is therefore not great enough to overcome the attractions between the ions in ether, but it is great enough in water.
Why does the oil based paint dissolve in paint thinner but not in water?
Because paint thinner is also oil based and water is not.
