What is A family of organic compounds that are soluble in organic solvents but not water called?
lipid
What is the difference between the solubility of organic and inorganic compound?
Like dissolves like. So organic compounds are generally soluble in organic solvents whereas inorganic compounds are more soluble in inorganic solvents (though there are plenty of exceptions to this).
Why is NaCl soluble in water but iodine not?
Sodium chloride and water are polar compounds. Iodine is soluble in nonpolar organic solvents.
Why are ionic compounds insoluble in organic compounds?
It isn't strictly true, but generally ionic compounds are not highly soluble in organic solvents because ionic compounds need a highly polar solvent to dissolve well (such as water) and in general organic compounds are not as polar as water. Remember, like dissolves like. However, many ionic compounds are very soluble in a variety of organic solvents, just not as much as in water.
Thorium Oxalate soluble in which organic solvent?
I believe that is not soluble in organic solvents.
What is the difference in the solubility of organic and inorganic compounds in water and in organic solvents?
In general, inorganic compounds will dissolve in polar or inorganic solvents such as water, whereas organic compounds will dissolve in organic solvents. However there are many exceptions to these.
Is 1-naphthylamine is soluble in water?
Diphenylamine is only slightly soluble in water, but more soluble in polar organic solvents.
Is benzene soluable?
Benzene is only soluble in other organic solvents. It is not soluble in water or other polar solvents.
Are covalent compounds soluble in nonpolar solvents?
YES They are
What one of these defines the like dissolves like rule of solubility?
As a general rule polar compounds are soluble in polar solvents and nonpolar compounds are soluble in nonpolar solvents.
Is NaCl a soluble?
Sodium chloride is very soluble in water but not in organic solvents.
Why NaCl is not soluble organic solvents?
Sodium chloride is a molar compound, organic solvents are generally not polar. But sodium chloride is soluble in propylene glycol, formamide, glycerin.
