∙ 15y agowater - it's intermolecular bonding is HYDROGEN BONDING because of it's particulary strong polarity

Why does ethanol dissolve in water?
Most salts will dissolve more readily in water than ethanol, so in ethanol the solid can crystallize out at lower concentrations. Also ethanol has the added benefit of being more easily removed by evaporation.
Why does ethanol dissolve in both water and gasoline?
Ethanol has a polar and non polar end the polar end will be attracted to water and the non polar end will dissolve in gasoline but its limited because of size of the molecule and not having the strongest attractive forces
Out of ethanol and butanol which is more soluble in water?

Why does ethanol dissolve in water and petrol?
ethanol consists of the polar hydroxyl group and non-polar alkyl grouping, accounting for its solubility in both polar (water) and non-polar (petrol) substances (remember, substances with the same polarity dissolve) miss p is awesome :)
Is ammonium chloride soluble in ethanol?
Yes, ethanol belongs to the alcohol functional group therefore polar, and BaCl2 is polar, so it does dissolve.
Is ethanol more polar than ethylene glycol?
Ethylene glycol is more polar than ethanol - a rough measure of polarity is given by the dielectric constant. For example, water is 80, ethylene glycol 37, and ethanol 24.3. Water is the most polar, followed by ethylene glycol and ethanol. Another way to think about it is that ethanol has one alcohol group, and ethylene glycol has two, so it is more polar.
Why does water dissolve more salt than ethanol?
Water is polar, and so is salt (because it's ionic and therefore polar by definition.) So salt dissolves easily in water, because in chemistry, "like dissolves like." Ethanol is non-polar (because it's a hydrocarbon, and they're all non-polar.) So water and ethanol won't dissolve in each other. Nor will ethanol dissolve salt.
Why does ethanol dissolve in water?

What is more polar ethanol or propanol?
Ethanol is more polar. Propanol has three ch3-OH groups which affect the polarity, making it less polar.
What happens when ethanol reacts with bromine water?
Ethanol dissolves in water, as the polar ethanol molecules form hydrogen bonds with water molecules.
Is ethanol and water miscible?
Yes it is. Because they are both not polar.
In terms of bonding why does ethanol and water miscible?
The polar group -OH of ethanol is bonded to water by hydrogen bonds.
Is isopropyl alcohol more polar than glucose?
Yes, Isopropyl Alcohol is a Polar Molecule.

Ethanol has a polar and non polar end the polar end will be attracted to water and the non polar end will dissolve in gasoline but its limited because of size of the molecule and not having the strongest attractive forces

Which is more polar phenol or ethanol?
Yes , phenol is more polar than toluene. because ph-OH has more dipole moment than Ph-CH3
