O is negative, H is positive. The charges pull things apart.

Molecular compounds that dissolve in water do not conduct electricity because no?
No mobile charged particles are present in sufficient concentration.
Why and how inorganic compounds dissolve in water?
Like dissolves like. Polar inorganic compounds will dissolve in polar solvents like water or alcohol.
What is a water hydrophilic?
Compounds that like water.
What type of compound will not dissolve in water?
A) nonpolar compounds will not dissolve in water because water is polar
Does water only dissolve inorganic compounds?
Water can dissolve organic compounds that are capable of hydrogen bonding. This would be organic compounds that contain a hydroxy group or amines. Remember that amines will not form hydrogen bonds in aromatic groups and their solubility in water decreases with increase in carbon atoms.
How can water dissolve some ionic compounds as well as some molecular compounds?
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.
Discuss how water can dissolve a molecular compond?
Water dissolves some molecular compounds because water is a polar molecule.
The process by which some molecular compounds dissolve in water to form ions is?
Ionization
Some molecular compounds such as HCl ionize completely in solution. Some molecular compounds such as HC2H3O2 do not ionize completely when they dissolve in water.?
HCl lowers the boiling point of water more than HC2H3O2 does.
Can water dissolve water compounds?
yea water can dissolve polar compounds
Molecular compounds that dissolve in water do not conduct electricity because no?
No mobile charged particles are present in sufficient concentration.
Will NaCrO4 dissolve in water?
Na2CrO4 will dissolve in water as will all sodium compounds.
How are the properties of molecular compounds different from those of ionic cmpounds?
Molecular (covalent) compounds are not dissociated in water.
Do polar and ionic compounds dissolve in water?
Ionic compounds, for one, can dissolve in water. They split up into oppositely charged ions when dissolved in water.
How many different molecules can water dissolve?
It is often mentioned that water can dissolve a huge variety of compounds of varying chemical characteristics. Declaring a strict number of such molecules would be almost impossible. It should be said that these compounds cannot be put into a single category. At first, let's take a look at ionic compounds. Being a polar solvent, water can dissolve many ionic compounds by dissociating them into seperate ions and creating hydrated spheres. Eventhough, there are some ionic lattices that do not dissolve, which we usually call as precipitates. When it comes to covalent compounds, many ones with asymmetric polar bonds are dissolved in water such as alcohols, amines etc. In rare cases, non polar compounds also partially dissolve in water, such as bromine and iodine. Generally, it can be also said that, molecules with relatively higher molecular masses, show less tendency to dissolve in water.
Why and how inorganic compounds dissolve in water?
Like dissolves like. Polar inorganic compounds will dissolve in polar solvents like water or alcohol.
What determines whether a compound will dissolve in whether?
The polarity or charges of compounds will determine if a compound would dissolve in water, where compounds with opposite charges within their molecules dissolve in water.
