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.
What types of compounds are fats soluble in?
Fats are soluble in non-polar compounds.
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.
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.
Is paraffin wax polar or non polar?
Paraffin (C25H52) is non-polar bond because it is not soluble in water which is a polar solvent, while it is soluble in mineral oil which is non-polar solvent. (Polar substances and ionic substances dissolve in polar solvents and non-polar substances dissolve in non-polar solvents.)
If a solute does not dissolve in a solvent?
Polar solutes are soluble in polar solvents. Non-polar solutes are soluble in non-polar solvents. Polar solutes are miscible in non-polar solvents and vice verse.
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.
What is something with non polar molecules?
Lipids are soluble in non polar solvents
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.
Is CsF soluble in water?
No, it is non-polar so it would not be soluble
Is RbOH soluble in non polar solvent?
It is not soluble in nonpolar solvents.
What is soluble in oil but insoluble in water?
There are many compounds that are soluble in oil but not water. These compounds include alkanes and other organic molecules that are mostly nonpolar. Even long-chain alcohols are soluble in oil but not water, though one part of the molecule is polar.
Is Br2 more soluble in H2O or CCl4?
ccl4 will dissolve better in water because likes dissolves likes, H2O is non-polar an CCL4 is also non polar where as ch2cl2 is polar(different to water) there for it wont dissolve in water but CCL4 will^^This is not true: water is polar. Therefore, since CCl4 is non-polar, and CH2Cl2 is polar, and like dissolves like, CH2Cl2 is more soluble.
What types of compounds are fats soluble in?
Fats are soluble in non-polar compounds.
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.
Why is ammonia more soluble than carbon tetrachloride?
polar and non polar
Does sodium chloride soluble to benzene?
No, NaCL is polar, benzen is non-polar.
