In Sodium Chloride, Sodium ion (Na+) and Chloride ion (Cl-) are combined by ionic forces,Where as in Iodine Molecule Two Iodine atoms are combined by covalent bond.Covalent bond is always stronger than ionic Bond.So in water the weak bond (Ionic Bond) dissociates easily and Nacl Dissolves Readily compared to Iodine.

Why iodine more soluble in potassium iodide than in water?

No. Iodine exist as I2, which is formed by the induced dipole-induced dipole interaction. Thus, it is a non-polar compound. Water, which is a polar solvent, prefers to stay hydrogen bonded then break up iodine. Remember: like dissolves like. This means that non-polar compounds like iodine will dissolve in non-polar solvent such as hexane, which polar compounds such as hydrochlorine gas will dissolve in polar solvents like water.


Does ionic compounds such as chloride NaCl dissolve easily in water?

OK so a compound such as sodium chloride dissolves in water because water molecules can orient themselves according to a charge of the particle Na+ and Cl- so that ions are pulled apart from one another and they dissolve. This can also happen the other way around when water is evaporated the less water there is the more closer the ions are.


Why is Iodine more soluble in kerosene than water?

chemical make-up, In detail, The chemical reaction of the kerosene upon the iodine, It "shakes hands" and bonds with and therefore is more interactive allowing fluid reply.


Which of the following would be most soluble or miscible in cbr4 and which one will be more soluble in water A. NaCl B. HCl C. CH3OH D. CH4 E. C2H6?

Polar molecules dissolve in polar solvents (like water), and non-polar molecules dissolve in non-polar solvents (like CBr4). NaCl and HCl will both dissolve in water, and CH4 and C2H6 will dissolve in CBr4. CH3OH will likely dissolve in water as well. ---------- Methanol is soluble/miscible in water at all concentrations. It will likely also interact well with non-polar solvents like Tetrabromomethane. Keep in mind that methane and ethane are gasses at STP, but should dissolve well in Tetrabromomethane in the right conditions.

Why do sugar dissolve faster then salt in water?

For dissolving any solute the solvation energy of the solvent has to be more than the lattige energy of the solute. In this case the lattice energy of Nacl[salt] is more than that of sugar. Hence it takes more time to dissolve in water. ---- Akashraj Ghosh.


Why iodine is more soluble in cl but less soluble in water?

Iodine is not soluble in water because iodine is nonpolar and water is polar. According to the "Like dissolve like" expression, nonpolar substances are soluble with nonpolar substances and polar substances are soluble with polar substances, but nonpolar substances are not soluble with polar substances.

Is iodine and water heterogeneous mixture?

Iodine is much more soluble in ethanol than in water, so it will usually form a homogeneous mixture. Of course, if you add more solid iodine than will dissolve in your quantity of ethanol at the temperature at which you are working, the excess solid will sink to the bottom. In that case, you have a heterogeneous mixture.

What is no more solute will dissolve in the solvent?

If you mean common table salt, which is sodium chloride(NaCl), then it does dissolve in water. It can become saturated to the point that no more will dissolve, but up to that point it does dissolve in water. Many, if not most, salts are soluble in water, though some are not.


50g of salt to be mix to 50ml of waterwhat is the answer?

Thats more 'salt' NACL than can dissolve in water normally. You would have to first heat the water to allow more salt to dissolve. But depending on where you live, the amount of salt that you can get to dissolve varies. If you live in Denver, Colorado you wont be able to dissolve as much as if you lived in San Francisco, California. Thats because the boiling point of the water is cooler the higher up you go in elevation, and the water can only be heated so hot before it starts to turn to steam. It is possible to dissolve more salt in water but you would have to do a bunch of scientific things like super heat the water with lots of pressure.
