How polar and non polar bonds affect solubility?
Molecules with many polar bonds are soluble in polar solvents.Also, molecules with none or few polar bonds (many non-polar bonds) are soluble in non-polar solvent. e.g Water is a polar solvent so substances with many polar bonds are soluble in it.
What is the general solubility of hydrocarbons in water?
hydrocarbons are not soluble in a polar solvent but are soluble in a non-polar solvent.
Is iron III nitrate soluble in hexane?
No, it is an ionic compound which is soluble in water (a polar solvent) but not in Hexane ( a non polar solvent).
Is RbOH soluble in non polar solvent?
It is not soluble in nonpolar solvents.
Are kerosene and oil soluble?
No. Kerosene is an organic compound. and water is a non-organic compound. (kerosene : non-polar Water : polar). As water is a polar solvent kerosene is not soluble in it. but kerosene is soluble in ethyl alcohol which is a non-polar solvent.
Why triglycerides that are very hydrophobic are soluble in acetone which is a polar solvent?
Acetone is only a weak polar solvent.
Why are some chemicals soluble in water?
Water is what is known as a polar solvent, which means that the water molecule has a negative and a positive pole, based on the uneven distribution of electrons in the molecule. Other polar compounds are soluble in a polar solvent, because of the attraction between opposite poles. Non-polar compounds will not be soluble in a polar solvent.
Why is naphtalene soluble in acetone?
Acetone has simultaneous characteristics of polar and non polar solvent.
Are ionic compound soluble in a non polar solvent?
Not usually.
Is ethanol soluble in kerosene?
ethanol (i.e ethyl alcohol) is a polar solvent. So ethanol is soluble in water. But Kerosene is non-polar solvent. Like dissolves like. This phenomenon is used here. Kerosene can dissolve non-polar solvents like naphthalene, which is a non-polar solvent.
Why is common salt soluble in water?
Salt is soluble in water because is a polar, ionic compound.
Why is sodium chloride is soluble in water not in petrol?
Because water is a polar solvent and alcohol isn't.
