SOLUBILITY IN WATER Insoluble SOLVENT SOLUBILITY
Soluble in hexane, toluene, ethanol and acetone. Insoluble in propylene glycol

The above statement with water is wrong.
I am currently running experiments on equilibrium concentration of succinic acid in a water/hexane system.
I was able to find several articles in the litterature where a mixture of succinic acid and n-butanol is used, but nothing with succinic acid and hexane.
I estimate the solubility of Succinic Acid in water to be ≥23.020±0.005 g/kg of water @ 21˚C. So far, 0.1g do NOT disolved completely in 133g of hexane, even after being heated to about 35˚C and stirred intensively for several hours.

Patrick is absolutely right. The first answer is completely wrong. Succinic Acid is not going to be soluble in hexane as Malonic and Succinic acid are both highly polar substances and Hexane is Non-Polar. Like dissolves like.

∙ 9y agoHexane (C6H14) is a non-polar covalent molecule. By the chemistry principal of similar compounds being able to dissolve one another hexane is soluble in other non-polars. Benzene and acetone are soluble in hexane by this principal for example.

What compound most dissolve in hexane?
Hexane is a non-polar solvent, so it will not dissolve in water. Kerosene is non-polar so it will dissolve in Hexane.
Does sulfuric acid dissolve in hexane?
no but hexane dissolves in sulfuric acid
What solvents can dissolve polypropylene?
hexane
Which of the following liquids is hexane most likely to dissolve?
NaCl will not dissolve in Hexane because NaCl is a polar molecule and Hexane is a non-polar molecule. NaCl is insoluble in Hexane. On the other hand, NaCl will dissolve in water because both are polar molecules. "Like dissolves like".
Why is graphite insoluble in hexane?
No. Hexane is a nonpolar compound and will not dissolve ions.
What compound most dissolve in hexane?
Hexane is a non-polar solvent, so it will not dissolve in water. Kerosene is non-polar so it will dissolve in Hexane.
Does sulfuric acid dissolve in hexane?
no but hexane dissolves in sulfuric acid
What solvents can dissolve polypropylene?
hexane
Which of the following liquids is hexane most likely to dissolve?
NaCl will not dissolve in Hexane because NaCl is a polar molecule and Hexane is a non-polar molecule. NaCl is insoluble in Hexane. On the other hand, NaCl will dissolve in water because both are polar molecules. "Like dissolves like".
Does hexane dissolve in motor oil?
yes
Is baking soda soluble in hexane?
No. Hexane is a nonpolar liquid and so will not dissolve an ionic substance.
Do sulphur dissolve?
yes
Is iron 3 nitrate miscible with hexane C6H14?
No. Hexane is a nonpolar substance so it would not dissolve ionic compounds.
Why is graphite insoluble in hexane?
No. Hexane is a nonpolar compound and will not dissolve ions.
Is sugar soluble in hexane?
No, sugar is not soluble in hexane. This is because sugar is considered hydrophilic, so it will only dissolve in something that contains water.
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
What is the danger of sulphur dioxide acid?
It can dissolve your face.
