Sulphur is said to be insoluble in water. So how do you make water combine with sulphur? Sulphur is said to be insoluble in water. So how do you make water combine with sulphur?
The rule states that "like dissolves in like". Since sucrose is a polar covalent compound, it can only dissolve in solvents that are polar. However, petroleum isnt a polar covalent compound, thus compunds that are not covalent will dissolve in it.
Ether has a lower dielectric constant than water. Therefore, the energy required to separate the cations from the anions in ether is greater than in water. The entropy gain that could result from converting solid salt to a solution is therefore not great enough to overcome the attractions between the ions in ether, but it is great enough in water.
Naphthalene is said to be somewhat soluble in ethyl alcohol (ethanol). It is insoluble in water and very soluble in ether, chloroform, or carbon disulfide.
Oil is a liquid that wont dissolve in water Mercury is a liqid that wont dissolve in water or oil or mentholated spirits ect

The lipid glycerol is soluble in both water and ether. Olive oil is soluble in ether, but not water. A solid lipid is insoluble in water, methanol, and ether.

Water is a polar molecule, components of petrol have nonpolar molecules.
naphthalene is non-polar and can only dissolve in non-polar solvents. ether is non-polar, water is polar.
Diethyl Ether, Naphtha, Xylene, Toluene, Petroleum Distillates, etc.

For example stainless steel is practically insoluble in water.
Ether has a lower dielectric constant than water. Therefore, the energy required to separate the cations from the anions in ether is greater than in water. The entropy gain that could result from converting solid salt to a solution is therefore not great enough to overcome the attractions between the ions in ether, but it is great enough in water.
Sulphur is insoluble in water but soluble in carbon disulphide.
Naphthalene is said to be somewhat soluble in ethyl alcohol (ethanol). It is insoluble in water and very soluble in ether, chloroform, or carbon disulfide.
Sulphur is removed from petrol in some countries because burning petroleum releases sulphur dioxide. This mixes with water vapour and rain in the atmosphere to cause acid rain.
