Why does carotenes move more rapidly with the solvent then the xanthophylls?
The reason that carotenes move more rapidly with the solvent than the xanthrophylls is likely due to polarity. Xanthrophylls are fairly nonpolar, but carotenes are even more nonpolar.
You have a spot of oil which is nonpolar on your favorite shirt.in which substance will the oil be most likely to dissolve?
The oil is nonpolar, so it will be more likely to dissolve in a nonpolar substance. Substances such as gasoline, kerosene, or other nonpolar solvents would be more effective at dissolving the oil spot on your shirt.
Why does isopropyl alcohol work to remove sharpie stains?
isopropanol/Ispropyl (or called rubbing alcohol) is a solvent that has polar molecules (molecules with a positive charged molecule that sticks to a negative charged molecule). If you sniff a sharpie, it has a sharp, alcohol smell, right? Sharpies have n-propanol alcohol, n-butanol, and diacetone alcohol in them. They have pretty similar structures to rubbing alcohol. All alcohol have polar molecules. There is a "like dissolve like" rule. This means Polar solvent+Polar solvent=dissolve/removal. OR non-polar solvent+nonpolar solvent=dissolve/removal. The closer the types of molecule and chemical make-ups are, the more likely they are to dissolve or be removed.
Can rubbing alcohol take out permanent marker?
isopropanol/Ispropyl (or called rubbing alcohol) is a solvent that has polar molecules (molecules with a positive charged molecule that sticks to a negative charged molecule). If you sniff a sharpie, it has a sharp, alcohol smell, right? Sharpies have n-propanol alcohol, n-butanol, and diacetone alcohol in them. They have pretty similar structures to rubbing alcohol. All alcohol have polar molecules. There is a "like dissolve like" rule. This means Polar solvent+Polar solvent will stick together. OR non-polar solvent+nonpolar solvent will stick together. The closer the types of molecule and chemical make-ups are, the more likely they are to dissolve or be removed.
WHY does alcohol remove permanent marker?
Isopropyl is in alcohol. which makes it dissolve. also alcohol dissolves both polar and non-polar substances , and permanent marker is non-polar. which means that it share electrons equally. I hope this helped ;) Further explaination: isopropanol/Ispropyl (or called rubbing alcohol) is a solvent that has polar molecules (molecules with a positive charged molecule that sticks to a negative charged molecule). If you sniff a sharpie, it has a sharp, alcohol smell, right? Sharpies have n-propanol alcohol, n-butanol, and diacetone alcohol in them. They have pretty similar structures to rubbing alcohol. Most alcohol molecules contain hydrogen, oxygen, and carbon. All alcohol have polar molecules. There is a "like dissolve like" rule. This means Polar solvent+Polar solvent=dissolve/removal. OR non-polar solvent+nonpolar solvent=dissolve/removal. The closer the types of molecule and chemical make-ups are, the more likely they are to dissolve or be removed. http://www.middleschoolchemistry.com/multimedia/chapter5/lesson7
Could somebody explain the phrase like dissolves like?
This means that substances are more likely to dissolve in other substances with similar chemical properties. It is most often used when discussing polar and nonpolar solvents. For example, oil will not dissolve in water because oil is nonpolar and water is polar. Basically, a polar solvent will generally dissolve polar solutes and sometimes ionic solutes, and a nonpolar solvent will generally dissolve nonpolar solutes.
Ionic solids will most likely dissolve in?
An ionic solute requires a very strong polar solvent such as water in which to dissolve.
Why does benzoic acid form a dimer in benzene and not in water?
Benzene is a non polar solvent with low dielectric constant, whereas water is a polar solvent with high dielectric constant. So water can reduce the interaction between benzoic acid molecules there by preventing them from dimerizing, which cannot be done by benzene

What type of solvent is a polar solute most likely to dissolve in?
A polar solvent will most likely dissolve a polar solute. There be dipole-dipole attractive forces occurring between the two polar substances.
Why would ionic solids most likely dissolve in water?
Ionic solids most likely dissolve in water because water is a polar solvent.

Is sodium iodide soluble in benzene?
The solubility of sodium nitrate in benzene is likely extremely low. I know that its solubility in dry acetonitrile (<40 ug/mL H2O) is less than 1 mg/mL. So I would guess it would be even worse in a non-polar solvent like benzene.
