Is water an organic or inorganic solvent?
It's an inorganic compound.
What kind of solute dissolves in organic solvent?
Inorganic
What is the substance that dissolves organic and inorganic molecules?
The general term is "solvent" There are organic solvents (toluene, acetone, ether, etc), and there are inorganic solvents (water).
What is the stronger solvent the solvent inside your skin cells or the bath water?
The solvent strength is the same in each case, because the solvent is the same, namely water. The osmotic gradient across the cell membrane is what will drive water into the cells, because the bath water is more dilute than that within the cells, and the water will go in the direction where the solute (not the solvent) is most concentrated.
What is the most abundant solvent on earth?
Water is considered to be the universal solvent. It is suitable for most inorganic reactions, but fails for many organic reactions.
Is water an organic or inorganic solvent?
It's an inorganic compound.
What kind of solute dissolves in organic solvent?
Inorganic
Is water known as the universal solvent?
Water dissolves thousands of compounds (organic and inorganic) no one other solvent dissolves such huge no of compounds so it is known as universal solvent.
What is the substance that dissolves organic and inorganic molecules?
The general term is "solvent" There are organic solvents (toluene, acetone, ether, etc), and there are inorganic solvents (water).
What is ink make up?
Ink is an organic/inorganic pigment or dye dissolved or suspended in a solvent.
Which inorganic compound essential to cells is missing from the chart and what function does it serve in cells?
A chart hasn't been added but the most important inorganic molecule in cells would be the water molecule.
What is the stronger solvent the solvent inside your skin cells or the bath water?
The solvent strength is the same in each case, because the solvent is the same, namely water. The osmotic gradient across the cell membrane is what will drive water into the cells, because the bath water is more dilute than that within the cells, and the water will go in the direction where the solute (not the solvent) is most concentrated.
What do solvents do to you?
Solvents are chemical substances that can dissolve, suspend or extract other materials usually without chemically changing either the solvents or the other materials. Solvents can be organic, meaning the solvent contains carbon as part of its makeup, or inorganic, meaning the solvent does not contain carbon. For example, "rubbing" alcohol is an organic solvent and water is an inorganic solvent. Hydrocarbon and oxygenated solvents are examples of types of organic solvents that can effectively dissolve many materials.
What does oil and water do not mix mean?
Oil and water do not mix; they are immiscible. This is because water is an inorganic solvent while oil is an organic solvent. Therefore, they cannot dissolve in each other.
Why is KNO3 and CCL4 not miscible?
KNO3 is potassium nitrate. It is an IONIC compound which dissolved in water. CCl4 is tetrachloromethane, it is a COVALENT compound, which is misxible in organic solvents.
Are cells composed of primarily inorganic molecules?
Cells are not composed primarily of inorganic molecules. This is because cells are found in living things which are made up of organic matter.
What is a characteristics of salt and other solutes?
The principal characteristic of a solute is the solubility in a solvent, at a given temperature.
