Best Answer

NaCl is ionic, and polar/non-polar usually refers to covalent bonds.

So, while it is polar in a sense (there are + and - parts) it is really ionic. It is, however, soluble in polar liquids, such a water.

No, NaCL is polar, benzen is non-polar.


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".


NaCl polar or non polar?

NaCl is an ionic compound, certainly not nonpolar.


Hydrophilic compounds polar or non polar?

Hydrophilic compounds are polar or ionic and this is the reason for attraction of water towards these substances.


Is sodium chloride is soluble in ether?

Sodium chloride is highly polar (ionic in fact) where hexane is very not. The two don't attract at all, so each is insoluble in the other.

Salt is polar. It dissolves in water (also polar). Like dissolves like.


What substances contains a nonpolar covalent bond mgf2 nacl nh3 h2o n2?

MgF2 and NaCl are ionic. NH3 and H2O contain polar covalent bonds. N2 contains non polar covalent bond.


Polar molecules behave as though they?

Polar molecules have charges that non-polar molecules do not have. It is the reason why non-polar molecules can move through the lipid bilayer quicker than the polar molecules.


Is NaCl polar or non-polar?

NaCl is an ionic compound, and these terms are generally reserved for covalent compounds. But by definition, all ionic compounds are polar.


What type of molecules dissolves in water polar or nonpolar?

Polar molecules dissolve in water. The reason why polar molecules dissolve in water, but not non-polar molecules is because non-polar molecules can't form hydrogen bonds.

non polar.


Why is suger insoluble in benzene?

Its just because of the reason that a non polar (benzene) compound cannot mix polar(sugar).
