Is n-octane polar?
water is polar and immiscible with the non-polar octanol.
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.
Why does hexane not form a solution with water?
Water is a polar molecule (is a dipole, has a positive end and a negative end), hexane is a non-polar molecule. Like dissolves like. Water will dissolve other polar molecules, like HCl and NH3. Hexane will dissolve non-polar molecules like benzene or toluene.
Why does ethanol dissolve in both water and gasoline?
Ethanol has a polar and non polar end the polar end will be attracted to water and the non polar end will dissolve in gasoline but its limited because of size of the molecule and not having the strongest attractive forces
Is ammonium hydroxide polar or non polar?
Ammonium chloride is polar, it dissolves in water.
Is coconut water non-polar?
coconut water is non polar
Is n-octane polar?

Does polar or non polar dissolve in water?
polar
Why do oil and water hate each other?
Water is polar while oils are non-polar. Molecules that are polar will mix with other polar molecules, and non-polar molecules will mix with other non-polar molecules. Polar and non-polar molecules will not mix.
What is the relation of non-polar and polar in water?
What is the relation of non-polar and polar in water?
Why is naphthalene more soluble in petroleum ether than in water?
naphthalene is non-polar and can only dissolve in non-polar solvents. ether is non-polar, water is polar.
Does water have polar or non polar covalent bonds?
polar
What is the difference between polar lipids and non polar lipids?
Polar lipids form bilayers spontaneously in water while non-polar lipids face towards the "non-polar" side of the cell being non water-soluble.
Why does hexane not form a solution with water?
Water is a polar molecule (is a dipole, has a positive end and a negative end), hexane is a non-polar molecule. Like dissolves like. Water will dissolve other polar molecules, like HCl and NH3. Hexane will dissolve non-polar molecules like benzene or toluene.
Is octadecane non polar?
It is non polar because you need a surfactant to dissolve it in water (a polar liquid).
Non polar gases are poorly soluble in water Why?
Because water is polar. Something that is non-polar doesn't dissolve in water because "like dissolves like."
