What type of compound will not dissolve in water?
A) nonpolar compounds will not dissolve in water because water is polar
Is a distilled water a polar or nonpolar?
Ionized water means that there are ions in a solution of water. Water itself, whether alone or floating with ions, will always be polar. Other ions or molecules don't affect water's polarity without changing the compound, in which case it will no longer be water.
Is a nonpolar compound miscible with water?
No, water is polar and in general like dissolves like so non polar solutions are miscible with other nonpolar solution and water is miscible with other polar solutions.
What a solvent for both polar and nonpolar solutes?
Water
What prevents lipid from mixing water?
Water is polar, but lipids are nonpolar.
If an unknown solid substance is non polar will it matter if distilled or tap water is used to prepare a solution of this substance?
If the substance is nonpolar it will not dissolve in either distilled or tap water. It will not make a solution with water. You will have to use a nonpolar solvent.
What polar molecules are attracted to water?
Hydrophobic molecules do not dissolve in water. This is because water is hydrophilic. Another way to say this is that lipids, which are nonpolar, cannot dissolve in water, which in polar.
Is watar a polar or nonpolar?

Is water a polar or nonpolar molecule?

Is peanut butter polar or nonpolar?
nonpolar. The fat molecules in peanut butter are nonpolar, that is why peanut butter doesn't evenly mix with water, a polar substance.
Is human skin polar or nonpolar?
It is polar. That is why water sticks to your skin, unlike wax, a nonpolar substance.
Why iodine is more soluble in cl but less soluble in water?
Iodine is not soluble in water because iodine is nonpolar and water is polar. According to the "Like dissolve like" expression, nonpolar substances are soluble with nonpolar substances and polar substances are soluble with polar substances, but nonpolar substances are not soluble with polar substances.
Is water a nonpolar compound?
no... water is a polar compound
Why doesnt oil dissolve in ocean water?
The reason why oil doesn't dissolve in ocean water is because oil is nonpolar and water is polar.
Is Dihydrogen monoxide an example of a nonpolar molecule?
