Why is water a unique molecule?
it is a mix of o2 and h2o
What happens when you add soap to kerosene and water mixture?
Basically water is a polar solvent, meaning it has a positive and negative charge on it and kerosene is non polar the dipoles cancel so it has no charge. The solubility rule is that like substances dissolve like so water would mix with another polar molecule and kerosene would mix with a non polar molecule, hence why the two cant mix very well.
What would mix the best with water non polar molecules polar molecules fatty molecules symmetrical molecules?
Polar molecules are mixed better with water.
Does dyed water and oil mix?
Oil and water don't mix. This is because the water is a polar substance ie in H2O the hydrogens are slightly positive and the oxygens are slightly negative, whereas the oil is non-polar hydrocarbon chains. The water has no reason to attract to the oil molecules, but attracts other water molecules really well - so the water molecules all stay together and won't mix with the oil. Water's really good at dissolving things like salt, because the salt has positive andnegative charges, which the water molecules naturally attract to.
Why does ethanol mix completely with water?
Ethanol is an organic molecule that consists of a two-carbon chain backbone with five hydrogens bonded to the carbons plus one hydroxyl (oxygen-hydrogen) group attached to one of the carbons. The hydroxyl group makes ethanol polar at that carbon, which allows the ethanol molecule to form polar bonds with the water molecules (two hydrogens bonded to one oxygen, very polar molecule). Because the ethanol and water form polar bonds they will mix completely (are miscible) in each other.

Why does nt water and oil mix?
Water and oil does not mix because water is molecule and oil is made of hydrocarbon chains. Only molecule substances can mix with molecule solutes.
What biological molecule will not mix with water?
Lipids

Why oil does not mix with water?
Water has a polar molecule, while oil has a non-polar molecule. Because of this, oil and water are immiscible.
Water and nonpolar molecules do not easliy mix?
Water and oil doesn't mix because the water is a polar molecule and oil is a non-polar molecule. There will always be more molecules of water than oil.
Why does detergent allow oil and water to mix?
The detergent molecule contains both nonpolar hydrophobic parts that mix with oil and polar hydrophilic parts that mix with water.

Why does hexane not form a solution with water?
Water is a polar molecule (is a dipole, has a positive end and a negative end), hexane is a non-polar molecule. Like dissolves like. Water will dissolve other polar molecules, like HCl and NH3. Hexane will dissolve non-polar molecules like benzene or toluene.
Why doesn't oil mix with anything?
While we know that oil will not mix with water, it is not accurate to say that oil will not mix with anything. Water is what is called a polar solvent, and oil is a nonpolar molecule. That's why the two don't mix. But there are a large number of nonpolar solvents that will mix with oil, and these include many organic solvents.

Polar molecules are mixed better with water.
