Why are organic molecules that contain oxygen atoms more soluble in water?
Water is a polar molecule, polar molecules are more soluble in other polar molecules. Oxygen helps make organic molecules more polar, and therefore more soluble in water.
Why is naphthalene more soluble in petroleum ether than in water?
naphthalene is non-polar and can only dissolve in non-polar solvents. ether is non-polar, water is polar.
Do water molecules in the liquid state have more energy than water molecules in the polar state?
Do water molecules in the liquid state have more energy than water molecules in the polar state
Is isopropyl alcohol more polar than glucose?
Yes, Isopropyl Alcohol is a Polar Molecule.
Why does acetone have a lower surface tension than water?
water is more polar than acetone
Why are organic molecules that contain oxygen atoms more soluble in water?

Is ammonia mlecule NH3 more polar than water molecule?
no, water is more polar than ammonia.
Why is the polar water more salty?
It's in water.
Is water more polar than isopropyl alcohol?
yes isopropanol is non polar while water is polar yes isopropanol is non polar while water is polar
Why is naphthalene more soluble in petroleum ether than in water?
naphthalene is non-polar and can only dissolve in non-polar solvents. ether is non-polar, water is polar.
Do water molecules in the liquid state have more energy than water molecules in the polar state?
Do water molecules in the liquid state have more energy than water molecules in the polar state
Are polar compounds such as alcohal equally soluble in water and non-polar solvents?
Water is polar, generally like dissovles like, so polar compounds are very soluble in water more so in general than non-polar ones
Why does Br2 dissolve in cyclohexane and not in water?
Bromine is more soluble in hexane than water. Br2 is non polar so it dissolves good in an non polar solvent like hexane. Water is a polar solvent.
What is the relationship between a compound's polarity and its solubility in water?
Polar compounds are soluble in water.
Is tap water polar or non polar?
Water is polar molecule. Since oxygen has a higher electronegativity than hydrogen.
What is a molecule that has a partial positive charge on one end and a partial negative charge on the other?
A polar molecule...such as water. The oxygen molecules pulls the electrons closer, causing the oxygen to have a more negative charge and the two hydrogen atoms to have more positive charges. this is very important in the bonding of water molecules to other water molecules.
Is phenyl salicylate more polar than water?
No, it isn't.
