Is cyclohexane a polar solvent or a non polar solvent?
It is nonpolar
What are the Differences between polar solvent and non polar solvent?
A polar solvent is a compound which has dipole moments which allow compounds which are able to form ion-dipole moments to dissolve. Non-polar solvent refers to compounds which have no polarity,(no dipole moments, or that the polarity is cancelled out), such as CCl4.
Why triglycerides that are very hydrophobic are soluble in acetone which is a polar solvent?
Acetone is only a weak polar solvent.
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 Caesium polar or non-polar?
Caesium is a chemical element not a solvent.
Is cyclohexane a polar solvent or a non- polar solvent?
Cyclohexane is a non polar solvent.
Is cyclohexane a polar solvent or a non polar solvent?
It is nonpolar
What does a polar solvent dissolve in?
a polar solvent dissolves a non polar solute
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 are the Differences between polar solvent and non polar solvent?

Is water a non-polar solvent?
No, water is a polar solvent because of the polar oxygen-hydrogen bonds and the geometry of the compound.
What type of solvent is best suited to dissolve ionic or highly polar substance?
The type of solvent that is best suited to dissolve an ionic or a highly polar solvent would also be highly polar, probably a polar protic solvent like water or alcohol.
Can a non polar solute dissolve nonpolar solvent?
Yes, like dissolves like so a nonpolar solvent dissolves nonpolar solutes and polar solvents dissolve polar solutes
Is H2O a solvent?
Yes it is a solvent.Iht is a polar solvent.
Why triglycerides that are very hydrophobic are soluble in acetone which is a polar solvent?
Acetone is only a weak polar solvent.
Is ethanol silver nitrate a polar solvent?
Ethanol is a polar solvent. Ethanol will dissolve silver nitrate.
What is the difference in a polar solvent and a non-polar solvent?
In polar solvents,the center of positive and negative charges do not coincide with each other and forms a dipole.The most common polar solvent is water. In non polar solvents the partially charges or poles do not exist.
