Miscible/Immiscible

when we say that a substance is miscible it means at it mix with whatever it is suppose to mix with and forms a homogenous mixture. when we say homogenous mixture you can see it as one not two different substance though they are a mixture. just like alcohol and water or coconut milk and milk. with water there are many substances that can blend to it... examples alcohol, vinegar, (well it is right i just want to ad a few points to it ) miscible means a liquid which ca n be dissolved to a liquid not a solid... ; misible liquids do not form separate layer on the surface of the liquids which they or dissolved to ; in case of immiscible liquids , they form a separate layer.

Water is a polar solvent, so any polar solvents will be miscible. Simply choose two polar liquids and you're home free. Ethanol and acetic acid will both dissolve in water easily.

Below their boiling point (337K and 342K respectively) they are fully mixable, rather say fully soluble in each other both being nonpolar substances, as all hydrocarbons are.

Methylbenzene, aka toluene, is not miscible in water. It is miscible in organic solvents such as hexane and acetone.


Are acetone and ethanol miscible?

No, they are miscible. Acetone dissolves both polar compounds and nonpolar comounds well. That's why acetone is used to wash chemicals off.

Is iron 3 nitrate miscible with hexane C6H14?

No. Hexane is a nonpolar substance so it would not dissolve ionic compounds.


Why are ethanol and hexane miscible?

Methanol is immiscible in hexane because methanol is a polar compound due to the -OH group. Hexane is nonpolar because there are only carbons and hydrogen atoms. Polar substances cannot dissolve/mix with nonpolar substances. Think "Like dissolves like".

Yes they are mixing. but they are not reacting.


Is octanol soluble with hexane?

Octane is a non polar compound. Sodium hydroxide is an ionic solvent. So octane is not soluble in NaOH and they together involve in no reactions.
