Which of the following substances will be soluble in the nonpolar solvent carbon tetrachloride ccl4 br2 c6h14 nano3 hcl explain?

Bromine (Br2) will be soluble in carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) because both are nonpolar. Sodium nitrate (NaNO3) will be soluble in water (H2O) due to its ionic nature and the ability to form hydrogen bonds with water molecules; it will not dissolve in a nonpolar solvent like CCl4. Hydrochloric acid (HCl) is soluble in water and will dissociate into ions, making it insoluble in a nonpolar solvent like CCl4.

Which alcohol is more soluble in water chloroform CHCL3 or carbon tetrachloride CCL4?

Chloroform; it is a polar molecule (like water) as opposed to carbon tetrachloride, which is nonpolar (a tetrahedral shape with identical bonds and electronegative pulls that balance out). Like substances dissolve like substances, thus chloroform dissolves more in water.
