What is example of polar aprotic solvent and nonpolar aprotic solvent?

An example of a polar aprotic solvent is THF, or tetrahydrofuran. It has the carbon-oxygen bond making it polar, but it has no protons that can freely dissociate form the compound. An example of a non-polar aprotic solvent is hexanes. hexanes have only carbon-hydrogen and carbon-carbon bonds, making it non-polar. They also do not have any protons that can freely dissociate from the compound


Is sodium chloride soluble in an organic solvent?

Sodium chloride is ionic and only dissolves in polar solvents- water is excellent. In non-polar organic solvents such as hydrocarbons it is insoluble but in polar organic solvents it has limited solubility, e.g. in methanol and tetrahydrofuran.

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.


What are the Differences between polar solvent and non polar solvent?

A polar solvent is a compound which has dipole moments which allow compounds which are able to form ion-dipole moments to dissolve. Non-polar solvent refers to compounds which have no polarity,(no dipole moments, or that the polarity is cancelled out), such as CCl4.


Is water a non-polar solvent?

No, water is a polar solvent because of the polar oxygen-hydrogen bonds and the geometry of the compound.
