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.
Water is the universal solvent. There are only a few substances that water can not dissolve, while there are many that kerosene can not.
No, it won't. Organic fat is made up of lipids that are not water soluble and so can't dissolve in water.
The solvents used to dissolve plating metals often were highly toxic. Cyanide, for example, was a commonly used solvent.
Salt is soluble in water because is a polar, ionic compound.

Water, AKA the universal solvent.universal solvent is water a solute is like kool aidwater, oxygen, acids, turpentine.WaterWater is the most commonly cited example of a solvent. Other common examples are hexane, ethanol, and ether.A slovent dissolves a solute, a good example would be sugar (the solute) and water (the solvent) mixing together. A example of a solvent would be water, an example of a solute would be salt or sugar.Some solids are soluble in water , some are not . Some solids are soluble in gasoline, others are not. Not all solids are soluble in a liquid. Liquids can dissolve a solid. There are some kinds of solids that can dissolve in a particular kind of liquids. Water is however called the UNIVERSAL SOLVENT because it almost dissolve all subtances in a certain degree.Examples of Solvents : Water , Gasoline , Vinegar , Alcohol , Kerosene
The most common solvent is water; the next-most common is ammonia. Often we add something to the solvent to help it dissolve things faster: * Any strong acid, such as HCl (hydrochloric acid), makes the solvent corrosive. * Any strong base, such as NaOH (sodium hydroxide), makes the solvent caustic. * a surfactant also helps the solvent dissolve particles faster.

Substances that are soluble have the ability to to dissolve. A common example of a soluble substance would be sugar(C12H22O11) and salt(NaCl), both are easily soluble in the universal solvent, water. Three other examples are Potassium Chloride (KCl), Potassium Iodide(KI), and Sodium Nitrate(NaNO3).
No, it won't. Organic fat is made up of lipids that are not water soluble and so can't dissolve in water.
A good solvent can be water for polar compounds. Water is called the universal solvent because many polar substance dissolve in it. However, a nonpolar solute would dissolve in a nonpolar solvent.

Solvent is what the solute is dissolved in.We usually think of the solvent as being a liquid like water, alcohol or petrol / gasoline. However, the solvent could be a gas or even a solid eg mineral deposits can dissolve through rock under pressure and time.Solute is what dissolves.Sugar dissolving in water would be the solute, sugar dissolving in the solvent, water.Solution is the resultant solute/solvent mix.When making a one litre (1 dm3) solution, the solute is dissolved in a small amount of solvent and then solvent is added to make the solution up to 1 litre.Solubles is not a term used so much in solution chemistry. There are, however, Solubility Tables that tell the chemist which salts are soluble in water and which are not. Soluble salts dissolve more than 10 g / 100 mL; moderately soluble salts dissolve less than 10 g/100 mL and insoluble salts dissolve less than 1 g/ 100 mL at room temperature.
Baking soda may be the solute in water as a solvent.
Salt is soluble in water because is a polar, ionic compound.
No, one common type of colloid is an emulsion and it is a mixture of a liquid in a liquid where one does not dissolve in the other. A substance that does not dissolve is insoluble.
