How do i separate an insoluble substance?
Insoluble substances can be separated from the solution (liquid) by centrifugation. If a centrifuge is not available, one can just let it sit and allow gravity to do the job. Of course, this will not separate individual substances that are insoluble from each other.
Why is it good to use alcohol when doing chromotography?
Alcohol is used only in the chromatographic separation of substances that do not dissolve in other common solvents but dissolve in alcohol.
What do isopropyl alcohol and acetone have in common?
They are both common solvents.
Is Turpentine polar or non polar?
The most common solvent is water. Other common solvents which dissolve substances that are insoluble (or nearly insoluble) in water are acetone, alcohol, formic acid, acetic acid, formamide. BTX, carbon disulfide, diemthyl sulfoxide, carbon tetrachloride, chloroform, ether, tetrahydrofuran, furfural, hexane and turpentine. They may be classified as polar and non-polar.A non-polar compound occurs when there is an equal sharing of electrons between two different atoms. Examples of household non-polar compounds include fats, oil and petrol/gasoline. Therefore (per the "oil and water" rule of thumb), most non-polar molecules are water insoluble (hydrophobic) at room temperature. However many non-polar organic solvents, such as turpentine, are able to dissolve polar substances. When comparing a polar and non-polar molecule with similar molar masses, the polar molecule generally has a higher boiling point,because of the dipole-dipole interaction between their molecules. The most common form of such an interaction is the hydrogen bond, which is also known as the H-bond.
What is non aqueous titration?
Nonaqueous titration is the titration of substances dissolved in nonaqueous solvents. It is the most common titrimetric procedure used in pharmacopoeial assays and serves a double purpose: it is suitable for the titration of very weak acids and very weak bases, and it provides a solvent.

What do all lipids having in common?
At least some portion of the molecule is hydrophobic. A+
In which solvents acetaminophen is miscible?
Ethanol and acetone are common solvents. Co-solvents can include propylene glycol and glycerin to fully dissolve.
What do isopropyl alcohol and acetone have in common?
They are both common solvents.
What is the solute and solvent of flour?
Baking soda may be the solute in water as a solvent.
When manufacturing nail varnish why is it important to ensure that the varnish is insoluble?
You want the varnish to be insoluble in water and common household solvents so you can do routine things like wash your hands and cook food without your nail polish coming off. OTOH, you want the varnish to be soluble in a chemical that's not overly toxic so it can be removed when it's damaged or your nails have grown out.

What are the 3 most common solvents?
oil water
What does solvent mean in chemistry?
A solvent is any substance, usually liquid, which is capable of dissolving one or several substances, thus creating a solutionOne of the most common examples of solvents is water, which is generally used for dissolving polar molecules
Is Sodium Carbonate insoluble in water?
No it is not soluble in common liquids
