OK so a compound such as sodium chloride dissolves in water because water molecules can orient themselves according to a charge of the particle Na+ and Cl- so that ions are pulled apart from one another and they dissolve. This can also happen the other way around when water is evaporated the less water there is the more closer the ions are.
NaCl is salt. Any ionic compound (metal+ nonmetal) dissociates into its ions when placed in water (Na+ and Cl-)
Like dissolves like.
A polar substance like NaCl will hence dissolve in a polar solvent like water
Because mercuric chloride is a covalent compound and is not an ionic compound. Only ionic compounds give chromyl chloride test
This compound is cobalt(II) chloride.
Water, (h2o) is a polar compound, wherein it has a magnetic charge. This charge attracts an opposite charge such as salt and decouples the sodium chloride ion.
Cesium chloride is ionic as are all cesium compounds.
The typical rule for dissolving substances in one another is that substances most readily dissolve other substances with similar bonds. Alkanes are nonpolar because they have mostly nonpolar bonds. On the other hand, ionic compounds have ionic bonds, which are extremely polar. Therefore, because the difference in bond type, ionic compounds do not dissolve in any alkane.
True
True
No. They are almost always hydrophilic and easily dissolve in water.
Because sodium chloride and water are ionic compounds.
I classify that as an overstatement. It is true that a great many ionic compounds are highly soluble in water, but not all of them.
four properties of ionic compound are: 1-All ionic compounds form crystals 2-Ionic compounds are very hard and very brittle 3-Ionic compounds conduct electricity when they dissolve in water 4-Ionic compounds tend to have high melting and boiling points and 3 ionic compounds are: Sodium Chloride - Na Cl Potassium Fluoride - KF Magnesium Chloride - MgCl2
This is a wrong question. Ionic bonding is a term referring to the attractive forces between the charged ions of an ionic compound. If you meant to ask " Do ionic compounds dissolve in water? ", the answer is yes. Most of them do. This is because the polar water molecules are easily separate the ions in the ionic solid. However, for unknown reasons, some ionic compounds do not dissolve in water. An example is Silver Chloride.
it can, polar water molecules easily dissolve polar molecules, or ionic compounds such as salt.
Organic solvents, which are non-polar cannot dissolve polar compounds, such as ionic compounds.
No they don't. They only dissolve in water. For example, sodium chloride is not soluble in hexane. Therefore we can separate the two by filtration :)
Water is polar. NaCl is polar. Polar substances are soluble in polar solvents.
Water can dissolve some ionic compounds as well as some molecular compounds because of its polarity. It is polar enough to dissolve ionic compounds into their ions. Water does not dissolve molecular compounds by breaking covalent bonds, but through intermolecular forces.
