Is methanol a good solvent to use in paper chromatography?

Methanol is a commonly used solvent in paper chromatography because of its polarity and ability to dissolve a wide range of compounds. It is especially good for separating polar compounds. However, caution should be taken as methanol is also toxic and flammable.


What is the solubility of hexane in methanol?

The solubility of hexane in methanol is low because hexane is a nonpolar molecule and methanol is a polar solvent. This means that hexane does not mix well with methanol.


Would methanol be a better or poorer solvent for extraction of cholesterol from egg yolk compared to 2-propanol?

The solubility of cholesterol in methanol is 0.014. 2-propanol would be a better solvent than methanol for the extraction of cholesterol from egg yolk.

Why was methanol an appropriate solvent to precipitate polystyrene?

Methanol is used to force polystyrene OUT of solution. So the simple answer is: you can't. But, there is probably an extreme temperature or pressure that allows polystyrene to remain in solution with methanol present.


Is alcohol an organic solvent?

Yes, alcohol is considered an organic solvent because it can dissolve organic compounds.


Is water an organic solvent?

No, water is not considered an organic solvent. Organic solvents are typically carbon-based compounds, while water is a polar inorganic solvent.
