It is a molecule that is made up of hydrocarbon chains that have no net overall dipole moment. This molecule is immiscible with any polar substances. It hence establishes a phase of its own on top of the polar medium.

Is S8 soluble in water?

S8, or elemental sulfur, is not soluble in water. It is a nonpolar molecule, which means it does not interact favorably with polar water molecules. Instead, sulfur is more soluble in nonpolar organic solvents.

What is a nonpolar organic molecule such as butter?

Butter is composed mainly of nonpolar organic molecules, including triglycerides made of fatty acids. Nonpolar molecules have no overall charge and are hydrophobic, meaning they do not mix well with water. This is why butter is solid at room temperature and can be used in baking and cooking to add flavor and texture.
