Is iodine more soluble in alcohol than in kerosene?
I would suspect iodine to be more soluble in alcohol than kerosene because iodine is a polar compound and so it alcohol. Kerosene is non polar. Now should you mix them? Don't think so! Iodine is a strong oxidizer and can react with the alcohol or the kerosene. This may likely cause a fire or explosion if conditions where right.
Is Iodine more soluble in water or carbon disulfide?
carbon disulfide
Will potassium chloride be more soluble in water or in isopropanol?
definitely more soluble in water....
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.
Which is more soluble in water sodium carbonate naphthalene or calcium carbonate?
Sodium carbonate is more soluble.

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 more soluble in water or carbon disulfide?
carbon disulfide
In which of the two solvents used is iodine more soluble?
Water as its most commonly found in salt Not water...
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.
Which is more viscous water or kerosene?
Water and wax do not go together. Think of the reason why people wax their cars. If the car gets wet the wax allows the water to form droplets and slide off. The wax and the water do not mix. Another way to think of it is floating candles. If the wax dissolved in the water then it wouldn't be a floating candle anymore. So my guess is that it is more soluble in kerosene.
How do you enhance the solubility of iodine in water?
To enhance the solubility of iodine in water, you can increase the temperature of the water as iodine is more soluble in hot water. Stirring or agitating the solution can also help by increasing the surface area and facilitating the contact between iodine and water molecules. Additionally, adding a solubility-enhancing agent like potassium iodide can significantly increase the solubility of iodine in water.
Does kerosene float on water-?
no, beacuse there is more sugars patick present in it so it floats
Is iodine and ethanol a heterogeneous or a homogeneous?

Why is ethanol soluble in ether?
Iodine crystals are not soluble in water. This is because Iodine crystals are non-polar. Water is a polar molecule and it therefore cannot attract an one of the iodine atoms since they have an electronegativity of zero.
Will potassium chloride be more soluble in water or in isopropanol?
definitely more soluble in water....
It oxygen more soluble in fresh water or in salt water?
Oxygen is more soluble in fresh water.
