Is sodium chloride polar or non polar you are confused because some says it is polar and some non polar?

Sodium chloride is a polar compound.

Sodium chloride is a polar compound.


Is sodium chloride a polar covalent bond non polar covalent bond or an ionic bond?

Sodium chloride is ionic.


Does sodium chloride dissolve in CS2?

Because carbon disulfide is a non-polar solvent sodium chloride is not soluble.


Is sodium chloride a polar or non polar molecule?

Sodium chloride is not a molecule, it is a crystalline solid in which the sodium cations and chloride anions are present in a 1: 1 ratio. The smallest particle that represents sodium chloride is a formula unit.


Does sodium chloride soluble to benzene?

No, NaCL is polar, benzen is non-polar.


Why hexane will dissolve benzene but will not dissolve sodium chloride?

Hexane is non polar compound and benzene also non polar compound so non polar comp's soluble in non polar reagents. But sodium chloride is ionic so does nt dissolve benzene in it


Why does sodium chloride not dissolve in non-polar solvents?

because sodium chloride itself is madee up of positive sodium and negative chloride ions


Is sodium chloride polar non-polar or an ionic molecule?

It is both an ionic and polar molecule.


Is sodium chloride is soluble in ether?

Sodium chloride is highly polar (ionic in fact) where hexane is very not. The two don't attract at all, so each is insoluble in the other.


Will sodium chloride dissolve in diethyl ether?

No. Sodium chloride is polar, whereas diethyl ether is non-polar. Unlike solutes do not dissolve in unlike solvent. Only "like dissolves like".


Why isn't sodium chloride soluble in isopropanol?

Sodium chloride is ionic, and therefore very polar. Isopropanol is a hydrocarbon, and is therefore non-polar. Like dissolves like, and polar and non-polar are opposites, so the salt doesn't dissolve. Water, however, will easily dissolve salt, because, like salt, water is polar.
