Why doesn't grease on clothing come out with cold water?
no. b'cause cold water has sort of bigger atoms or molicules so it would be no help for you
Soap helps romove grease from clothes because?
Fatty acid salts act as soap to remove grease because of their nonpolar tail and their polar head. This structure allows otherwise insoluble particles in water to become soluble and then washed away.
Why is grease and oil insoluble in water?
Water molecules form hydrogen bonds with each other, excluding the hydrophobic molecules.
Which property of water allows it to dissolve important biological ions?
cohesion
Why can the fluids used to dry-clean clothing remove grease even when water cannot?
Water cannot interact with grease,due to its high surface tension, so when the water is removed from the clothing after cleaning it, the grease remains. The fluids used to dry clean clothing are actually chemical solvents. They dissolve the grease, so when the solvent is removed, the grease is also removed.
What is mecille?
a micelle allows dirt to dissolve in water very cleverly. they are molecules with a hydrophobic head and a hydrophilic tail. The hydrophobic head is attracted to dirt. Many of these attach to dirt almost covering it like a sphere with the hydrophilic tails letting it dissolve in water.
Why does water by itself not dissolve grease stain?
because water is polar and grease itself is non polar. it has to follow the "like dissolve like" law
Do acids dissolve fats and grease?
No.Water is polar, and grease is nonpolar. Remember, "like dissolves like."However, you can use a surfactant (detergent) to interrupt the liquid-liquid interface and help stabilize the grease.

Water molecules form hydrogen bonds with each other, excluding the hydrophobic molecules.
Why can the fluids used to dry - clean clothing remove grease even when water cannot?
The fluids used to dry-clean clothing remove grease when water cannot because it chemically bonds thus making it invisible to other materials
Do bases dissolve grease?
Bases can react with greases; soaps are formed, soluble in hot water.
The polar nature of water allows it to dissolve?
all of these <3
Which compounds does not dissolve in water and cause acid rain?
Compounds or elements that don't dissolve in rain and make it acidic: Nonpolar molecules, such as those found in grease or oil, do not dissolve in water.
Property of water allows it to dissolve compounds such as table salt?
Solubility
What allows water to dissolve many diffrernt substances?
